| Introducing Roo Hello, I'm new to this forum but my fiance and I just adopted a 2 1/2 month old Yorkie puppy. She's tiny and we all love her to death though it's taking my bigger pup a little while to get used to her! (the dogs don't live together and we don't leave them alone together yet as of yet since Roo is so small!) My only question about her is why does she always stick her tongue out? Does anyone else's Yorkie puppy do that? I swear when I first met her I thought her tongue didn't fit in her mouth! I think it might be a sign that she's uncomfortable but she also does it when she's asleep so I'm not sure! |

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Welcome to YT! Roo is an adorable name and an adorable Yorkie. If I'm not mistaken, your fiance is sporting the "It's her dog" look. All of us guys do that at first. Next thing we know, we're talking baby talk to them and letting them lick our faces. I don't remember if my guy's tongue hung out when he was a pup, but it doesn't now at 3 years old. Of course, my 11-year-old's tongue hangs out, but that's because he doesn't have many teeth left. Hmm, I wonder if puppy teeth are so small that they don't hold the tongue in? Either way, it's nothing to worry about.

| It seems to be more common that you realize, but most outgrow it. I think it's just a carryover from nursing on the mom and is a comfort for them. You may try just touching the tongue each time you see it and that could break the habit. She sure is darling and has a wonderful coat!! |

| Hi! I love how Roo is staring at the big dog in that pic---and like Mr Alaska said-- my Hubster thinks nothing of taking Milo out and about dressed up and will even shoulder the leopard print carrier bag in public now. |

| Roo is soooooo cute, and I love the name! My Sukoshi didn't ever stick her tongue out (she's 8 months old now), but I think it's adorable, and I'm sure it's nothing to worry about. Have fun with your new bundle of fur! |

| Welcome to your little one, I'm sitting in the office looking at the pictures of the 3 yorkie's I've had, only one had a tongue that hung out, not always but a lot of the time. In the 8 pictures framed of him, only two show no tongue, so with my Martini it was a Yorkie thing..

| Oh, Roo is so, so, so cute!!! Yes, the tounge out like that is a "Yorkie Thing". Dixie did it alot when she was younger, but doesn't now. I do know some Yorkies who are adults and still do it though. Either way, I think it's very cute. Roo certainly is ADORABLE!

| Welcome to YT!!! Your baby Roo is just way too cute! Don't worry yourself about the tongue thing; like the others have said it is very common. My little Mango has done it since she was a teeny pup; she is now 6 months old and is still happily doing it. Last edited by laurenr; 05-11-2007 at 04:16 PM. |
