quote=Kat1102]I have a Yorkie puppy of 3 months and every day for about 2-3 minutes she starts running around the house in big circles through the furniture like a mad and crazy dog. It is kind of cute but I was wondering if that means anything or if anyone has experienced this as well. Thanks!

Chewy does this too... it's when he has to poop! When ever he runs like that he is telling us Its coming and i can't stop it so get me OUT! He poos every single time!!!!

Topher does this too...ever since he was a puppy around an hour or so before bed it seems he gets a 'second wind' and runs through the house like mad...over and under.

For the longest time he used to slide on the floor, unable to stop and run right smack into the side of my filing cabinet..every single time...lol! And what a noise it would make CLANG!!! He didn't hurt himself (amazingly so). He'd stop...give his head a shake...and keep right on running!!

My son even piled pillows up against it a couple of times...just like the advertisement on tv...trying to save poor Topher from impact! lol

He's older and wiser now so avoids that area...hehe.

...and yes, it's almost like you can hear him laughing as he runs....not a care in the world of a happy yorkie puppy!

I have a male Yorkie, Frodo, he is 21/2 and after every bath he first drys himself off on a towel sliding back and forth and then becomes the mad dog,we laugh, heruns through my kitchen into the living room back through the kitchen and into our den and does this for a while and we cannot stop laughing, he is sooo funny....enjoy them when they do this they are so funny...

Isn't it a hoot!!! Duke 2 1/2 yrs. has been doing the Road Runner around our house since he was a baby! It's usually after he's eaten meat........ and there he goes, racing through the living room to the front porch, back through the living room, bouncing on the couch, jumps off, down the hall, into every bedroom, back down the hall into the kitchen and back for at least 4 laps!!! We now have another yorkie, Scout, 3 1/2 mos. First time Duke did his race, Scout would whine and cry. He thought Duke was crazy. Needless to say, he is following by example now. They both will even do it on command...........All I have to say is RUN FORRRRRESSSST RUN! and there they go! They sleep like babies at night!

Mine does it too. Mostly when she is wet. She also does it when me and my sister are home at the same time. It's the ways she shows us she is excited. I take her to our neighbors when we are gone all day and she does it when she sees him to. I think he spoils her, so she gets real excited when she sees him. I love it.
