| Do you think dogs can be ADHD I really think my Luigi is ADHD. My son is ADHD he was diagnosed at 9 and is 27 now. It was very tough as a kid he just couldn't sit still or focus. Even as an adult if it doesn't interest him there is now focusing on the subject. I swear Luigi is the same way he is always running around like a little nut (The H in ADHD Hyperactivity). When you talk to him or try to work with him his little head is going back and forth looking at everything and anything (the A Attention Deficit). With his long spikey hair he looks like Einstein on Speed with his head frantically flicking back and forth. LOL He cannot concentrate on anything longer than 2 seconds. I feel like saying come on Luigi FOCUS FOCUS. I don't remember Bella being like this. You could get her to concentrate on things, even when playing catch or tuggy. |

| I don't know if they can or not but my hubby and I jokingly say that Tobie has ADHD. lol. He is the same way! He'll play with 5 different toys within 5 minutes. He definitely has a problem focusing on anything for very long. I was shocked when I got him to pay attention long enough to teach him sit, down and up.

| Yorkies are very often misunderstood. For the most part (those that have retained the original Yorkshire TERRIER traits) are highly independent and high energy little dogs that don't particularly need a human telling them what to do. |

| Well now that makes sense Now that makes sense. Helps me understand Luigi a little better. We are just the caretakers who live in his home. |
