| Submissive Yorkie I'm not sure if all Yorkie's are like this but my boy rolls over onto his back all the time! when I yell at him for pee'ing on the carpet, when he meets a new doggie (big or small)...it's odd ! is that typical Yorkie's behavior or are just some yorkie's like that and not others? A woman at the doggie boutique I go to told me the other day that her friend had a submissive yorkie who rolled over in front of a big dog, and the big dog bit her, and killed her!! |

| yeah it doesn't bother me at all, but it just was sort of a shock because until lately, he was NOT submissive. It changed within the last month or so (around the 6 month mark) |

Bella Boo & Diggy Too! Donating GS Member | I have one of each Bella walks up chest out trying to be dominant, and Diggy rolls over but not to every dog but Id say 90% of the time he does. She tests Bella often but she usually gets him belly up before its all said and done.

Bella Boo & Diggy Too! Donating GS Member | I would not be suprised if its not only submission because I think Diggy uses it as a big of a "charm" tool also If he wants a treat or to be held he goes belly up at my feet and digs in the air its so stinkin cute smart lil fur butts!!!!

| My lil guy Benny does this also. He is sooo submissive.....Sometimes we even get the submissive peeing... Where as, his brother Brody is is nothing like that..... We have chalked it to differ personalities.
