| Missy gets really wound up at times and I'm trying something new with her. I hold her in my arms really close to my body. With my left hand, I hold her two front paws. With my right hand, I lightly press her head against my body and keep saying softly..... "SETTLE" (softly). It's working! I don't put her down until she settles down. Then I put her in her bed.

Yorkie Lover Donating Member | My girls calmed down around a year but they still do have moments where they are wild and crazy it is just not all the time anymore!! I would stick with the walks and let them run around as much as possible, get all that energy out and they should eventually calm down a bit!!

| I am home all day long with them. Can you imagine if I worked? I love them but enjoy it when they settle down for a bit but it never when I am resting to lol. I feed them Iam I heard from a dog trainner that for Tyke maybe give him the adult food instead. What do you think of that? They have a pen to go outside but we want to get a little fence started for Tyke and then run him around. I do play fetch with him and so does Ed when he comes home. Tyke is the one that we take every where when possible. Today I took Benji to give him extra mom time. He loved it. |

| Check with your vet on the food. Mine didnt want you to change to adult food before 1 year old.

| Lucky is three and as energetic as can be. She gets a 30-60 minute fast walk/jog a few times a week and she still cannot seem to get enough play time! It used to drive us nuts, but now we think it's cute and other people think WE are nuts! |
