quick question....... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Well, I got up this morning and of course went on yorkie talk!

then i thought ok maybe i should go get tucker now(he usually wakes up around this time) i walked into my mom's room and he was on the floor. last night he was on the bed. the only thing i can think of is that he jumped. its a pretty high bed. he seems fine not limping or anything he's just running around beating up rusty and acting like tucker!! :-) i don't think there's anything wrong with him but is there any thing i should watch for?

lol...He figured it out ...I would set up something so he doesn't have to jump from such a high distance...

When Chanel first learned to jump off my bed I took a laundry basket - turned it upside down with a towel on top to keep it from being slippery and secured up against the bed....I picked her up and down till she knew it was her little step up and down...She never had to jump off the bed cause she would use the laundry basket...Good luck with your baby - he's officially a jumper now !

Coffee and YT first thing in the morning is a beautiful way to start the day!

So glad your Tucker didn't get hurt jumping off the bed. Schatzie has done the same before and I about had a heart attack. Now there are stairs of pillows for her when she decideds to take that route. She seems to think it's more fun to "jump", ugh!! (we need a emoticon of a flying Yorkie, lol )

lol thanks guys. now he's going crazy chasing rusty around the audomen (or however its spelled you know that foot thing at the end of the chair) barking at him. rusty's running away with his tail between his legs and he just keeps going around he doesn't even run away what weirdos gotta love em!!!!!!

...OR....... maybe your mom had a night like I did with Lil Bit and Apple.....by midnight or 1 am she decided to put Tucker down on the floor so she could FINALLY get some sleep!!!!!!!!

I tried putting Apple and Lil Bit in the bed with me one night and it was a ..run...dig.....play....run....dig....play...festi val until I just put them both back on the couch!!!!!

Either way...sounds like he is doing fine!!!

Simon and Hallie both jump off the bed (grrrrr.....) I set up a step for them with pillows but sometimes they still insist on jumping. Maybe your mom did put him down there, or maybe he got down on his own if he was hot. Hallie will lay on the floor when she gets hot sometimes. I'm glad he is ok and being rowdy as ever!

MeganS · 06-11-2005, 08:55 AM

thanks everyone he's fine. it turns out he DID jump. my mom said she's probably gonna get some special puppy steps for tucker.
