I think Yorkies are more like human babies than other dogs! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

cinnamonmon · 09-21-2007, 06:34 PM

Sounds silly, I know, but it is easy to forget Cinnamon is a dog. I have two other little ones, a mix and a Maltese, and they act like dogs, but not my Yorkie. She cant be away from people and follows me from room to room. When she is sick or scared she tries to crawl onto me, (I think she would crawl inside me if she could). My other two go hide when they are scared or dont feel well. She seems to know my moods and wont leave me alone if I am sad. She likes to be held like a baby and even likes to rock. I do wonder if all Yorkies are like this or if it is just this one. I have had many other dogs throughout the years and loved them all dearly, but none of them were quite like this one.

My Teddy is very much like that and I venture to say that many will say the same.

I think that's why we all fall so hard for these little ones!

Yep, the males all like to follow me into the shower and watch

If you arent paying attention to them they get mad and turn their back and face the wall to give you the cold shoulder treatment.

They have selective hearing and only hear the words they want to hear like "treat", "outside", or "go for a walk". Sit down, no barking, and poop outside falls on deaf ears.

chrwel02 · 09-21-2007, 08:28 PM

HA! Sounds like my little one! He has been with us for almost a week and he sticks to me like glue! He loves to sleep on my chest!! I have a good shelf for him!

Winstin is so much like Cinnamon. My mom complains that I treat him like a baby. But, I just tell her he is my boy so leave me alone. All Hubby keeps sayng is boy you really like your dog. I say no, I love my Boy. He is just different than my big girls.

you are so funny Lauren

mizzwanned · 09-21-2007, 08:43 PM

So true! I have 3 and they are all like toddlers! I love'em

s13silviagirl · 09-21-2007, 09:40 PM

Turbo is like that too...especially being cradled like a little baby in a blanket (or his towel after the bath!). I love it!

ILUVSADIE · 09-21-2007, 10:09 PM

Yup - I'm 56 years old, have had several different dogs in my lifetime, and without a doubt, Sadie is the most "human" of them all. She follows me everywhere I go - from room to room - it's adorable - she certainly craves my attention, loves sleeping with me, she's just a VERY SPECIAL little girl!!!

And she is my first Yorkie. I'm am SOOO sorry that I didn't discover this wonderful breed years ago!!

lara2913 · 09-22-2007, 12:11 AM

Absolutely, my 3 ARE my babies. They are like little kids

ladybugg74 · 09-22-2007, 04:21 AM

I totally agree. Some people just don't understand, expecially when I worry about them when I am not home and when we are somewhere and have been gone awhile and have to leave to go home and check on the furbabies. I really don't trust them in the care of anyone but my hubby and me.
