| A Concerned Yorkie Mom My sweet little Buttercup loves the outdoors, well today we got out of bed(she sleeps with me) but she wouldnt walk out with me so i had to push her out and I took a shower and came out to take her potty she refused to go outside so i slide her out there and she kept doing this all day even for my grandparents. I walk out hearing my Grandmother say go out Butters. I walked over and she says try taking her out I come down and put her leash on and said Lets go outside princess, and she goes out. Whats wrong with my baby? |

| Welcome to Yorkie Talk. Did you have rain today or bad weather the day before?

| Also, how did she behave in the house? Was she lethargic or not eating?

| She may have been hurting or feeling bad or just scared to go outside due to some scent or bark or noise she heard outside and it put her off going out voluntarily but when you leashed her, she realized she was under your control and just went out rather than be pulled along. Or, by the time you leashed her, whatever she was worried about was no longer worrying her. Or, she's got such positive association with her walks on leash that it made her want to go out maybe thinking she was going for a fun walk. But likely something out there made her a little anxious about going out voluntarily and hopefully it's all gone tomorrow. If she keeps it up, I'd have her checked over by the vet and if he gives her a clean bill of health, try distracting her with food treats and leading her out with those in front of her nose until she voluntarily goes out on her own.

| Sounds like a quirky behavior thing, as Jeanie indicated. Some Yorkies do not like rain or wet grass/pavement. Or if you had thunder last night, maybe she was reacting to that. Has she ever had an aversion to these things before?

| Something could have scared her the last time she went out last night - some sound or she felt a sharp gas pain or got stung while she was outside - just anything can spook a dog at times - and she just decided she didn't want to voluntarily go out there anymore.
