Is Your Yorkie a Lap Baby?

Imagine to joy of having a wet Nylabone smacked up against your face for leverage. The sound affects of juicy chewing also are such fun. Actually, when he's in his "behind-the-head" position, it does make for a nice, WARM, furry neck pillow. It's funny, when he jumps on my lap with his bone, he just keeps climbing on up to the top like it's a perfectly normal thing to do -- all I see is an adorable face charging at me, his bone hanging out of his mouth like a cigarette. Sometimes I insist that he sit on my lap instead and chew -- but sometimes I just give in!

That has to be hilarious!

I wish I could have done this as a poll to compare and see if there is a difference in whether the male of females are more prone to be lap babies or if it is just a matter of personality.

That's the way it is here. My girl's were/are always too busy. Of course, once they wear out, they'll hit the lap for a bit if they can happen to find me sitting (which is seldom).

That may be another difference. Some people don't sit a lot and it's kinda hard to be a lap doggie if you don't have a lap to get in!

My little guy is a total lap baby...at the very least in the same room within sight on Mommy

Duh! I never even thought of that. We are a pretty laid back family so that may be one of the reasons all of my dogs are lap dogs.

All 13lbs of him. He's just a big clinging baby boy

My poor little Kacee is so desperate for a lap that if I go prop up on the bed late at night to read for awhile, then she comes and gets on my lap!

Lucy is a lap baby, Abbie likes to lay on my chest right up under my chin.

Mine is a lap baby only if she is sleepy. LOL If she is not she is bouncing off the walls.

mr. bailey is a desktop puppy. its funny, when hes on my couch, he likes sleeping on the pillow, so he lays on it and gets up and circles on it and scratches at it and starts grumbling like hes getting irritated. he paws at the pillow because he tries to fluff it up and he does this for about 10 minutes until he gets comfortable.

lately, i've been busy with business school and he always feels the need to be close to me. so i've been spending a lot of time in the computer room at my house. So he likes it when i put him on my desk and he likes to fall asleep to me typing. so hes been sleeping alot on my desktop its so cute. and when i make to loud of a noise he kind of wakes up and does this little stretch with a little noise he makes as he stretches like a little baby would make. its so cute. my girlfriend adores it when he does that. Its funny, when i'm using the mouse a lot he sleeps and plops his butt on my mouse so i can't move it, or whe im typing along he puts a leg across the keyboard and goes to sleep so i can't type. in this picture i was highlighting and trying to read so he put his head on my book and i couldnt turn my pages lol.

heres a picture of mr. bailey knocked out on my desk which i just took on my blackberry.

This is so cute. I was on a different website and when I read this in my mail I had to come back to see this photo! Totally worth it! What a little doll!

yes, he likes to help me type my management papers, everytime i tap on a key he looks at me and hits the enter button on the numeric side. so when i hit delete, he looks at me and hits the enter button again, we go at it for a while. hes a crazy little man. he always seems to plop his head or his big butt somewhere or on something i really need to use just to make me laugh. i love him.

this is what mr. bailey looks like after not getting his usual puppy teddy bear cut and waking up on my comforters. its a bad day of bed hair, and i think he was still a bit drowsy when i too the picture. the camera wasn't crooked, it was him and being groggy in the morning. =P
