Does Anyone Medicate Their Yorkie??? I dont want to sound like a bad puppy mom here....but my yorkie is seriously out of control. I have many friends who have yorkies...and we all trained them the same way (and two of them came from the same litter)...but mine has turned out to be a little terror. She is LESS out of control when we are just hanging out at home...but as soon as we take her over to someones house or people/dogs come over to our house she goes absolutely crazy. She is 4 lbs and as long as the other people/dogs are around she will be sprinting, jumping on people, knocking things over, and will NOT stop. We have let her and another yorkie play and she will want to play for 5 straight hours and will NOT calm down. It is NOT for lack of excercise or attention. I have tried walking her at LEAST 1-2 miles/day but she still does not stop if other people/dogs are around. I have been home with her most of the time and she has been socialized with other dogs from a young so it is not for lack of human/other dog interaction. I just was wondering if there is any medication you can give to calm yorkies down. She is an embarrassment and makes it impossible to take her anywhere. I am not trying to have a dog that just lays around all day...but there has to be something to do to calm her down to a normal energetic yorkie.... Im gonna lose my mind...Please HELP!!! |
How old is your puppy? Some yorkies are more hyper than others. |
I think you should try a professional dog trainer before resorting to drugging your dog. You say you all trained your dogs the same way -- but it does not sound like it worked with yours. So, you may have to try different ways. They are not all alike, but they are very energetic dogs by nature. I can't tell you what will or won't work with yours, but I would definately contact a dog trainer. |
there are saposed aroma therapies that are meant to calm down dogs, i saw one at pets mart that plugs into a light socket. |
i'd try a professional dog trainer before resorting to medications. your pup seems to lack impulse control and you some help to get her under control so that she can be a joy to everyone. |
