Worried about myself & my furry baby
 

I have a now 7 month old furry baby his name is chewy.. ok this is the story...
My sister's yorkie has puppies and at 2 month old she gave me a boy!! Which is now my pride and joy..
My husband and i been trying to have kids for yrs now and i am only 26 until they told me i had a lil problem and i will need serious treatment to see if i can get pregnant i was really depress and so my sisters got me chewy...
I love my puppy and treat him like a king but i am reading all this thread and am very scare if something happening to my puppy..
I take death pretty bad for people and animals i love ..
I never had a puppy and i feel am getting a lil upsess with my puppy i treat him as he is a baby and my husband just watches me and tells me come back to reality he is a dog ... i take him everywhere with me and my sisters tell me just leave the dog home but i don't i feel bad of leaving him alone so much time..
Am i just treating my puppy good or am i getting upsess.. i'm always rocking him and kissing him all over i buy him treats and lotss of toys and a bed with blankie, and put ice on his bowl like he loves it and just spoil him so much..
He does listen to meet and follow commands here and there.. am i wrong for feeling this ( this happens to me sometimes not all the time)..:confused:

Nope, it just sounds like you have the YT Fever! Have you taken him to a vet for a physical yet? You might want to make that a priority.

jajajjaja i guess is that i didin't know you can get to love a puppy like this... he is adorable and my pride and joy.. yes i got him checked and they tell me he is fine...:) :D

I know what you mean about loving too much. I love my little rascal. I didn't get to raise him from puppyhood, but still, he is my baby. I think I take it too far sometimes, and yes, I need a reality check.

If anything, remember that all babies, both skin and fur, need direction. Spend time training your furbaby so he grows up to be a "polite" and obedient adult dog. I get so many compliments about how I "raised" my baby boy from my mom. I've never seen her so proud of me. If you can raise a well mannered furbaby, with a language barrier, you'll make a great mother to a skin baby who will understand better. :)

ohhh i almost got tears in my eyes .. thanks alot for your advice you guys are so supportive and make me feel much better ..:D:aimeeyork

That's one of the things that is so great about this online community. We all love our furbabies so much, and we take our responsibilities serious when it comes to our extended furry family.

My blood relatives (aunts, uncles, and cousins) think I'm absolutely nuts. I must have some screws loose to fuss over a "stupid dog" as much as I do. But guess who's knocking at my door wanting to hold him (cause he's always clean and soft), wanting to see his tricks, and walk him because he's so obedient I don't even need to leash him. They're impressed, but they still think I'm nuts. :rolleyes:

omg i feel the same way my aunt ask me wow can you really get to love a dog .. am like whattttttttttttttt i can't believe you ask me that...
my niece was mad and kick my furry baby i even cried cause she hit him real had and he bang his head in the wall and cried i hit her in her hand and my sister was upset and told me he is just a dog... i never leave them with my puppy again!!!!!!!!!!....
also i take pics of him all the time and post them so my family see them and they say am sick posting so much pictures of a dog:(

Careful with the kids. Kaji is petrified of them. I don't know what happened, he came to me that way. :(

As far as pictures go.... he's all over my phone, and on my Facebook page, all I have are videos of him.

Nope, you're not crazy.. sounds like you're like the rest of us!
Be careful however.. separation anxiety can develop without giving him some alone time, and no one likes an obnoxious kid, so remember to teach him manners. They can become the boss without you even realizing it, so you need to remain the "leader" of his pack.
Enjoy your little one!

Sounds like you are going to fit in great here. We are all yorkie crazed!

Exactly! :thumbup::thumbup:

Jackson is my total baby boy. He's really like having a little kid sometimes, lol. I buy far too many things for him, I feel guilty for leaving him alone for a while... but he's also trained. And he knows I'm his mama/boss. A spoiled dog is not a happy dog or a fun dog to be around. Jackson, while my baby, still gets to be a dog. We take daily walks, dog parks visits, swimming, hiking, rivers, beaches, running time, play time with other dogs, etc. Training is key to having a healthy, happy relationship with your dogs! You rule the house, not the other way around! :):)

This is a good place to come to talk and share about your yorkie and you can leave your family out of some of it. That way, you can talk and share to your heart's content and they don't have to be part of it.

Not everyone understands how people feel about their dogs and yorkies.

I find these forums to be a great place to release and find others who share your passion.

Thank God my husband and I are on the same page...we're both crazy about Prince...we both call him our baby. My son calls him his little brother! (I know my son does that just to appease me! :))

I've got 2 that I'm crazy about and treat like babies. I call them my babies and carry them, baby them. I used to always bring my first yorkie (Stormy) everywhere but thats because she would get severely stressed to the point of getting sick and seizures. I never wanted to leave her and have something bad happen.


Now with two though, Zach and Lola. I don't bring them out as much because I have a 4 year old skin daughter and a 6 year old step son so it's difficult. That's one of the reasons I got Zach, so Lola could have someone keep her company when I am busy or out.

My mom thinks I'm crazy and alot of people look at me funny when they know I have 3 dogs. But whatever they are better friends then half the people I know ;)

Omg thanks to all of you for your advice... i love to share exp with people feeling the same way... Thanks again

Yorkies are DOGS????? Mine are NOT!!!! They are our babies and call us Mommy and Daddy and they are spoiled rotten... ;)
Really, don't feel bad about loving your little fur baby like a real baby, it's just what Yorkies do to us humans. Oh... and by the way... I prefer Yorkies over human kids b/c they never talk back, they don't ask for money, they never borrow your car and if they get pregnant you can sell their kids... ;) (I had my share of skin kids so I know what I'm talking about...LOL!)

I totally agree with Mitzis Mom,no talking back and especially borrowing the car :sidesplt: We do love our furbutts!!!! Mine is like a baby and I treat her like on too. I rock Phoebe and also make sure she is wrapped up in her favorite blanky:D

I agree with loving your dogs, YES, they are dogs. I love my children more, my dh and I would give our lives for our children. We love our Yorkies, they enhance our lives but our children ARE our lives.
I am sorry Mitzis Mom if you have had bad experiences with your own children. :( but I would say that my children are spoiled and lovely and my dogs are spoiled and lovely as well. As for the dogs getting pregnant and you selling the pups, that is awful.
BTW, if you raise your children properly, they do not talk back, and as for asking for money NOBODY should ask anyone for money, they should earn their own.
And your Yorkies talk?????
I prefer hearing "Mommy" and "Daddy" from my biological children. I thank the good Lord each day for them.

Oops... that went down the wrong throat, I guess... Sorry if you didn't see the ;) smilies... They mean that I was joking, you know... and the thing about selling the pups, just where did you get your Yorkies from?

Your OP brought tears to my eyes. I love seeing love between creatures. My family thought the same things about me in the beginning. You should have heard some of the things they said when we made Maddie's picture our Christmas card and included her name with ours. She has always been treated like a baby. I call myself mommy to her and dh calls himself daddy. (He would never admit that to anyone ;))

This is what is so great about YT. When the world is tired of hearing about our kiddos, this world loves each and every story we can share. :) Wwhile others share their children stories, I share my girls' stories.

Thanks for all your comments...xoxo:D

No... it's totally normal with Yorkies! I kiss my boys all over and they sleep with me and I spoil them, there are 4 beds around the house! I cater to them, 'oh put on the AC for the dogs", " oh the dogs want to go in the pool', 'oh they want/need this or that... ' whatever it is. LOL
on another note, Ive given up on the thought of ever having kids, its not going to happen for me. So my dogs are my babies... and Im ok with that. Tell your hubby, your dog is your child since you don't have any skin kids and you shall treat him that way you feel you should. Just don't let hubby get too jealous, Ive seen and heard horrible stories of how people can treat their sig others pets when they are not looking, if they are the jealous type!

We are empty nesters, and we call Bubba and Sissy "the kids". Our adult children refer to them as their "furry brother and sister". Hence, Bubba-brother, Sissy-sister.

If you're obsessed, then what am I?:D

you guys are just to funnyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy lmaoooo loving it!!!!!!
