| What's your Yorkie's strange habits? Lets see if anyone's Yorkies have these things in common! 1) Molly licks my legs after I come out the shower. 2) Will bark and cry when I get in the shower as if I'm leaving her. 3) Loves music and will stop what she's doing if some comes on. Can't think of any more! Will post if I do. I'm interested to see any of your Yorkie's weird habits! |

| 1 and 2.Gypsy also does the shower things you listed. 3.If Gremlin is eating out of her dish, she will pull him away by his tail. 4. They both have this thing about taking a bite out of everyone's shoes they are wearing as soon as they come in the house.

| Bunny also dose one. Two: she will jump in the bath with me, when I am taking a bubble bath to relax. Three: If you sitting in the living room and your eating some thing, SHE has to have a bite of it, or you will be missing a shoe leater. Four: IF the cats are any where by the door, she will grab them by the back of there neck and drag them back and she is whining at them as she is pulling them back. Five: if my husband get up set (example: Bunny chewed up his belt last week) and he rase his voice, she will bark,whine and bit his toe, as if to say dont do that. |

| bunjee's top ten strange antics. 1. bunjee likes to lick my feet when i get out of the shower too! 2. bunjee loves to chew on hubby's feet, but not mine (i tell him he's got stinkier feet, that's why!) 3. bunjee'll get up in the middle of the night and follow me to the bathroom or kitchen, then follow me back to bed. if my husband does the same thing, bunjee'll look up, see it's my husband, then go back to sleep. 4. after pee'ing on the potty pad, bunjee'll push invisible dirt around the pee stain. 5. bunjee loves to play with cat toys more than dog toys. 6. bunjee loves to check out traffic from the living room window (i have floor to ceiling windows on one wall) and bark at pigeons that fly by. 7. bunjee is part cat. he loves to lay in the sun and will move around in the living room to follow the sunshine. 8. bunjee is part spiderman. he'll climb out of baby gates and xpens when given the opportunity. 9. bunjee is part squirrel. when give access to lots of treats, he'll grab a big mouthful, walk to his favorite spot in the bedroom, drop everything onto the floor, then eat at his leisure. 10. sometimes bunjee'll be mad that i'm not letting him sleep in bed with me and would scold me with a bark, then walk into the kitchen to his other bed to sleep by himself in protest. |

| I Would Like To Hear... That someone elses Yorkie or any other dog for that matter, Nurses on an object? Bugaboo has been nursing on this toy since he was a babe. Now he only does it at night before we go to sleep. And if you look real close you can see where he has worn it from his mouth!

| Max antics: 1. He tries to tip his bowl and will generally not eat if the kibble is in the bowl. 2. When he eats in the living room he takes 1 piece of kibble, climbs on my lap, chews it with a partially open mouth (like he's showing me that he is, in fact, eating), licks his lips, then jumps off the couch for another piece of kibble. He repeats this procedure until he is finished eating. 3. When I used to give him greenies, he would walk around with it in his mouth for about 10 minutes to be sure that he found "the perfect spot" to enjoy his greenie. I don't give him greenies anymore so he now does this when I give him a new toy. 4. He buries himself in his bed. It's a doughnut bed so he digs the pillow in the middle out, lays in the middle and flips the pillow back down over himself. 5. He also likes to bury toys, typically in his doughnut bed however, I witnessed him attempt to bury a new toy in the large rectangular bed in the living room--one that does not have any crevasses. He kept digging and digging, dropped the toy in the spot, and pushed it down with his snout. When it didn't get "buried," he picked it up and began pacing around in the kitchen with the toy in his mouth. 6. He always steals socks from the laundry basket (clean or dirty). He gets his snout and shoves it through the side of the basket to get the sock. 7. He LOVES the angle bay window at my parents' house. He even has his own bed up there. When I visit, he spends most of his time there looking out and barking at the people and dogs that walk by. Abbie antics: 1. Abbie prefers to sleep on my bed. If she is up there and my boyfriend or I attempt to move her, she pretends that she is sleeping and makes her body go limp when we pick her up (while subtly observing us with 1 eye open). 2. When she visited my parents, she met my brother's boxer, Vito and took over his extra large dog bed on which to take naps and just hang out. She now has the same extra large dog bed in the living room at my house. This bed is HUGE--so huge that about 10 yorkies could fit comfortably on it. 3. Abbie does not tolerate being away from her brother, Max--not even for a second. If Max is taken outside and she is left inside she will pace from window to window and door to door looking for him and whimpering until he comes back into the house.

| 1) Josie also does the toe licking thing after showers! 2) She will only eat her food on the carpet. She takes one kibble at a time out of her dish, on the hardwood floor, and brings it to the carpet to eat. 3) She sunbathes on the floor through the windows. 4) After she goes to the bathroom outside, she walks around the perimeter of the yard to greet all the other neighbor dogs through the fence. Then comes back inside.

| My Roxy has the same crazy habits as molly, 1)Licks my legs when I get out of the shower. 2)Barks when I go in the shower 3)Loves to hear music 4)Attacks my daughters toy maracas and tries to kill them lol. 5)Gets a head start before she runs and jumps onto the furniture and since she is to small she just hits the side of the couch or bed and does it over and over and over. It looks like a cartoon when they run threw a wall with their arms and legs spread out. |

| Haha... I'm not sure I could list all my babies strange habits... but I'll try -Tucker has this thing that if he has been held and you put him down he will shake then strut backwards, like kicking out with his back legs acting all tough... it's hilarious -When Tucker gets his medicine we have to give Tripp something also because he is convinced Tucker is getting something yummy... lol -Whenever Tripp hears anything that resembles a doorbell he goes insane... literally -Tucker hunts bugs professionally :P hmm I'll have to think about this and add more later lol

| 1. When Roxy is being fed, as I'm mixing her food she'll run around and beat up her toys, and if any of the cats are around, she'll beat them up too 2. When the doorbell rings, she runs around and beats up her toys or goes after the cats, Roxy has anger issues 3. When anybody goes to pick her up, she'll scoot her little butt towards you and then hop up as you lift her up, I guess she thinks she's really heavy and we need the help 4. At night she buries herself way under the covers, I still can't figure out how she breathes, but she won't come out until morning when I say the magic words "wakey wakey eggs and bakey!" 5. Her cutest quirk is she loves to be groomed by our cat Mozzy and every morning she lays in front of him for her daily bath, and then they run around and play, those two really love each other

| Tigger's antics 1- He loves to get between the sheet and the down comforter at night. 2-when I give him his pup corn he takes only one and runs off. 3-He lays on the towels and waits for me to get out of the shower. 4-He'll stand at your feet and literally wait till you give him permission to jump onto your lap. Then when you say up, he'll jump into it. 5-He will usually try to lick your mouth, nose, up your nostrils, or your ears when you give him the chance. 6-He'll grab his rawhide or toy and toss it in the air for himself. 7-If I give him a dentagreen or cornstarch bimple he'll wait for me to sit down and then proceed to eat it on the side of my leg. That's all I can think of for now.

| This is the cutest thread! Okay Fergie does some pretty interesting things, ~barks when I get on my cell phone, because she wants attention, this is very annoying, when I get off the phone she stops ~when my cell phone rings it is her mission in life to find where it is in the house. One time it was in the bed under the covers, and she dug and dug for it ~uses my husband for pet steps. anytime he is sitting on the floor by ANY piece of furniture, she runs and climbs up him to get on the funiture. |
