Family dont understand and laugh at me my hustand (his kids, brother in law ect) all think i am "supposed to treat my yorkie like "a dog" i tell them that he isnt a regular dog, these dogs are very fragile and with special needs that other bigger dogs dont have.... they tell me i treat him too much like a baby and that is "annoying" they also advice me "not to pick him up too much"/// bottom line is getting really annoying because this dog to me is very special, my parents are dead and i am an only child, i have never had anyone to take care of and to me this is very special, but no one around me seems to understand, they think is terrible he has clothes, terrible that i give him some craps off the table, terrible i have him on my lap a lot.... i am very close of tell thim them to "bug off" today i actually said "this dog is my only friend in london" (have been here a year and i only have made two friends/// not easy here.... why are they saying this things? dont they see that it hurts:( |
Sorry to hear you are having a rough time with your family and friends. Only special people understand our Yorkie love - and most of them are found on YT. We are always here for you! |
thanks :) this to me is very strange because i love my dog like he is human, to me he isnt just a dog...but they see it as "oh you pay too much attention to him, you hold him too much you put clothes on him, thats not natural" it really hurts, they dont say anything nasty about him, but to me is not cool because he is my dog and i alone have to decide how to raise him. |
Don't let it bother you. He is your baby, they just don't understand. Don't let them try to make you stop either!! He is comforting to you, and I am sure you are to him. Forget what they say, he's your baby boy! |
I understand what you mean. I have been in Germany the last 6 to 7 months and had made no friends yet. My husband and parents dont like the fact that I treat my furbabys so much like humans, so dose my inlaws. I got really mad one day and I told them "you wish someone would treat you the way I treat my babys. If you dont like how I treat them, to bad. There my furbabys and what I do with them or to them is my business, not one else's, so keep your opinions to your selfs." After that, they now just except it. I even convinces my husband that my babys needed clothes. He even bought my Bella her very 1st shirt which should be at my parents house by the time I get there next monday, for vacation Just set down and tell them how you feel and if they still dont "TRY" to understand. Then tell them if they cant say anything nice about you babys, then dont say anything at all. Just remember YT is here for you!! Olivia, Bunny And Bella |
He's your baby, and don't let anyone tell you he's not. Yorkies are and always will be special. Maybe you can meet some people there with Yorkies, I know we have a few members here you can set up playdates.:) :) :) Don't let them get you down, but if they do you always has you YT Family here for you.:2hearts2: :2hearts2: :2hearts2: |
Dont feel alone, my daughter gives me alot of cra.. , so i do alot of stuff that annoys her ... :lol tears |
thanks you guys!!!! i thought i was the only one who got some heat... i feel incredibly lucky to have my dog because with him now i dont feel so alone, because i am grateful is that i treat him so well is amazing others cant see that... thanks for your support!!! |
I have had some rough times after I had surgery about 2 years ago. After my hysteroctomy I had some hormone unbalances. And with that I went through a lil case of depression. That was when my husband said I needed to get my yorkie. He will never understand the bond that my baby and I have. But he knows never to say anything because he knows that lil guy makes me happy. And thats exactly what he wanted to have happen. Now I want a lil girl to go along with my lil boy. Then my family will be complete. My husband has agreed just cause he knows them lil furbabies make me so happy. |
people just dont understand our relationships with our yorkies. and they dont know what they're missing out on. |
are they jealous? :confused: yorkies are our babies if they don't understand that's tough. i treat my yorkie better than most treat their human kids. don't be sad. i totally understand. my family moved away to hawaii. my yorkie is my family and my best friend. |

I would just blow it off. Let them think what they want. You have no idea how much guff I get from everyone I know!!! Everyone is always laughing about how I treat my dog like a little baby. I just tell them they wish someone would treat them like I treat Chewy, LOL, LOL!!! |
I agree ignore them! My older bigger dog gets babied and so does my new Yorkie. My yorkie is always on my lap or my kids lap. It was either a little dog or a baby and my husband gladly said the Yorkie! |
i agree, i dont know why people get like that with little dogs, is as if it bothered them that someone is being treated special. as if "no dog deserved to be loved that way" is almost childish, they put it as if "it wasnt normal or natural" but to me is ridiculous to see adults picking on a little dog! |
