| My yorkie hold up her front feet. Normal? When my yorkie is wondering around the house (usually looking for something to get in to) he will stop and tilt his head and hold up one front foot. He alternates feet and does not seem to be in pain. Is it normal? Just part of his personality? |

| That sounds very cute. If his feet do not seem to bother him, after you look at the pads and all is ok, maybe he is pointing to what he wants with the one paw They are so smart I woudln't doubt it. Carol & Buddy |

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Stedman does that ALL the time! It IS actually REALLY cute lol It's just his personality though If I am in another room and he can't find me, he will actually peek around the corner and look at me while tilting his little head and lifting one little foot up off the ground - kinda like, "Mommy??? Where ARE you!??" Hehehe, it's precious Hubby and I just adore it and talk about it all the time, it is so cute!

| Too cute! Tank does that outside. He always lifts his right paw and tucks it up. It's like he's a wanna be hunting dog in a pointer stance. |

| Our furbaby does that too. I've seen other dogs do it. It's mostly when they are focusing on something very intensely. |

| It is cute! I am glad nothing is wrong with him. His paws are fine and he is not in any pain. He mainly does it when I talk to him or he is looking for something to get in. he is so adorable. Amazing. I was never a dog "lover" til I got my yorkie. Now I am neurotic and buy him clothes and picture frames and cute drinking bowles. I have never had a pet that was more than "just a Pet."
