Also, with eating poop, I say NO! and he chews harder and faster and runs in the other direction.

I guess they all act the same!! They are too smart to listen to us!

Georgie does the same thing so I guess when they jump they are just doing it for exercise because he runs like a mad man when I go to pick him up.

Also, what are you chewing on means oh crap I need to hurry up and swallow.

SO Far I got that there is no such word as no .
come means run away fast and look cute .
drop it means What this??? as they swallow rip and tear.
no bite means ..bite with all your might and run fast or shake a pant leg
till you trip them .

to bunjee...
"NO" means "wait a minute then continue".
"DROP IT" means "just take it with you."
"LEAVE IT" means "look longingly at it."

No=Yes!

You'd think all Yorkies were men. Oops, did I say that outloud?

Stomper LOVES the word "NO!" - that means to do the wrong thing more!

Oh...here's a couple more for our list:[list][*] Frantic barking by the senior dog, when one is jumping in his face MUST mean: "Oh, YES, please do THAT some MORE!" [*]Frantic barking/running by the senior dog when one is attached to his tail cannot possibly mean anything other than: "Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! Pull that tail some MORE!" [*] Running into the bedroom (after he's extricated one from his tail) is an unmistakable invitation for you to FOLLOW him!! The senior dog is just getting away from your people, so y'all can REALLY play! [/list]

LOL! LOL! LOL! I just consulted the the Senior Dog in our house and he confirmed, after looking disgustedly at the baby Yorkie, that you have hit the nail right squarely on the head!!!

DOWN means keep scratching at her leg
Gee, I didn't realize I was becoming bilingual!

YES!!! I had when she cries to get up on bed and then steps backwards when I try to reach her and then cries some more! Especially when it's in the middle of the night and she has gotten down to pee!!! 3 am, I really don't want to get up, chase her around the room, cuz you know, mommy up in the dark means she's gonna chase me for fun, catch her and then get her back in bed and me back asleep! I guess all yorkies really are alike...

onelovelylynn · 03-22-2006, 09:55 PM

yES YOU ARE ALL CORRECT!!!

STAY --- means run as fast as you can in the opposite direction.
COME --- means look really cute as you just sit there nicely.
DROP IT-- means do anything BUT drop it.
EAT YOUR DINNER --- means go grab a bite and run to the living room to eat it.

When I am in the backyard with Penny and I see her pick up something she clearly shouldnt have, and I say Penny Come. She looks at me like "hello are you talking to me?? And runs around the yard so fast there is no way I can catch her. Yorkies are smarter than we want to believe!!

And YES we do not own our yorkies, they own us. And prove it on a daily basis.

RowdysMom,

Our "Mozart" (see attached) looks at Abbie like she's some sort of gnat. But, we know he'd never truly hurt her. If he were going to snap at her, he would have by now. We let them work out their squabbles, for the most part - until we feel "Mo" has truly had enough, then we'll separate them. He must discipline her, or she'll be a little monster. It irks me when he has a toy, and she walks right up and takes it out of his mouth! Well, actually - we're not sure if she takes it, or if he kind of throws it to her. You know....like a sacrificial offering. <grin>
