Helpppppp!

my yorkie used to love watching my goldfish swim around in his little bowl so one day my little sister put the bowl in front of Lucky to show him up close......then lucky starteed drinking the water and acidenlt bit my goldfish, it died and when he saw it wasnt moving he started whimping and howling and licking it when we went to flush it he waited next to the toilet and wouldnt move. now all he does is stare into the toilet and whimper. i feel so bad and im worried sick becouse he wont eat or drink, i called the vet and he said to just keep an eye on him... hes only 3 months old any advice?

Poor fishy Most likely your boy will okay, possibly an upset stomach or diarrhea from drinking the water. I did want to warn you though about the toilet.....make sure the lid is kept down! A YT member's yorkie recently died after falling into a toilet.

I would take him out of the bathroom, shut the door and hopefully soon he will forget and eat/drink for you. How long has this been going on, you didn't really mention that?

did this just happen? how long has been at the toilet bowl?

If it just happened I would take him for a long walk, play with him, give him treats, etc. to get his mind off of it... puppies especially have a really short attention span... so if you get him focused on something else he should forget about the fish.

I'd run out and get him another goldfish... but don't let him get so close to this one!

[maryeverett1]

Just again proof that yorkies are more like people than they are like dogs! What other dog breed would sit next to a toliet bowl and stare at it missing "his fish!" so cute! Poor little guy! Doesn't surprise me a bit that he found a friend in the fish...unfortunately the fish wasn't so lucky!! LOL. Really cute story...

Cute story and kinda sad, too. Yorkies do grieve. I don't think he'll know the difference.

Poor him.. he misses his friend... quickly get him another gold fish.. or two.. he will be back to being happy...

Samy does this but with cucumbers hahaha he started playing with a small piece and it went under the couch.. then i gave him another one, and again he accidentally pushed it under the couch.. all night he went around the couch wanting to get it back... so i just gave him a bone to focus on...

Well.. your gold fish is not a piece of cucumber, but your dog loved it as much as Samy loved his food before he lost it... get him another one

Gold fish are pretty

[hayleesmommy]

[mscat]

Yorkie's are so sensitive .

[cathys]

Ahhhhhhh,,,,another godlfish is a good idea.
YOrkies really do have very unique personalities for sure, alot like people in some ways.
A cucumber?????? Ive heard it all now.
