| What do you do with your yorkie when you leave the house? I'm curious to know what everyone does with their yorkie when they leave the house? In case you have more than one yorkie, you can pick more than one answer! |

| Hobbs has always hated his crate. Now that he is 100% potty trained and I trust him not to get into any trouble, he now has the freedom of having pretty much full run of the house (minus bedrooms and bathrooms). Hootie loves her crate and is perfectly content staying in there, so that is where she stays when we are out. |

| We rarely ever, ever leave her and if we have to, it's only for maybe a couple of hours! If we absolutely cannot take her, then she stays in her x-pen.

| Max and Abbie can't be trusted unsupervised--Max is not 100% housebroken and Abbie likes to chew things that she shouldn't when she's bored. If I'm going to work, they go in their crates. If I'm going to be gone for a short time, I leave them gated in the living room.

| Our four have the run of our family room, kitchen, laundry room and part of the hall. It's all connected with wood floors and perfect for them. I wish I had this much play space growing up. lol

| Buddy has the run of the house. He usually sleeps on the bed on his blankie while I am gone or curled up in the corner of the sofa on another blankie. Spoiled rotten he is. |

| Hes confined with a baby gate He has the bathroom and a little hallway in front of our bedroom, he's potty trained but once in a while he makes a boo boo and wanders off to unchartered territories like the kitchen floor. I once let our bedroom door open and he started to chew the phone wire but today i left our bedroom door open hopefully since its been months since his last chewing incident hopefull he will play with one of his 10 toys and not the wire
