Rescue Yorkie Hi everyone, I am new here. We have just adopted a 6 year old male Yorkie from a rescue centre. We were told he can be cross but with training should stop if tackled early. We have had him for 3 days and he is very affectionate towards both my husband and I. Occasionally he gets over excited and mistakes my husband shoes for a toy and growls at his feet. I have given a sharp 'no' and he stopped. He is showing signs of being territorial, barking at the window. Again a sharp no stops him. Today a male friend came to visit and Geoff, my Yorkie was sitting on my knee in the garden. My friend reached to touch him, which was a stupid thing to do and he barked and growled at him. Not sure if he was protecting me or he was afraid of a stranger. I have had dogs before mostly Cairns who have shown aggressive behaviour. I want to stop the bad behaviour before he gets into bad habits. All advice welcome |
