Books for first time dog owner ? Hello, I'm gonna be first time dog owner and I'm trying to learn as much as I can before we get our Yorkie. My wife always had dogs in her household, so she'll probably be more of a guide than me, but I'd love to learn as much as I can. I did a quick search on forum and I found recommendations for Yorkies For Dummies, which is perfect, because that's how I would feel if I would have puppy in my house right now :) However we still have time till next year, so if you could recommend few books I would appreciate it. Thank you |
Welcome to YT, I heard that book was a good one. You can always looks around YT and find out great information. If you have something in mind you can do a search for it. At the top you will see SEARCH click that and type whatever you need, then click Go. It will take you through all the threads with that word.. |
I have found my local library to be very helpful. Another good one is "The Complete Idiots Guide to Yorkshire Terriers" by Liz Palika. |
Hello and Welcome to YT. "Yorkies For Dummies" is the first one I recommend."Yorkshire Terriers: A Smart Owners Guide" is the second book. These are excellent resource books .Another book "How to Housebreak Your Dog in 7 Days" Is very helpful. They are not as easy to housebreak. Good luck |

My favorites! The second one mentioned, has a short training CD inside the back cover.... |
Thank you all, I'll try to get these and read them. I'm not a fan of books, but I'm guessing it's good for both the owner and a dog to read at least a few. |
I got these books on my Amazon shopping cart, I think these should keep me occupied for a while. It's actually funny, because usually I'm the spender, and wife always tell me to moderate my spending. But when it comes to Yorkie, I can get all the stuff and she won't mind at all, Yorkie has better privileges than me :) Yorkshire Terriers - Wendy Bedwell-Wilson How to Raise the Perfect Dog: Through Puppyhood... - Cesar Millan Complete Idiot's Guide To Yorkshire Terriers 2e,... - Liz Palika How to Housebreak Your Dog in 7 Days (Revised) - Shirlee Kalstone Yorkshire Terrier - Dog Fancy Magazine Yorkshire Terriers For Dummies - Tracy Barr |
