| Yorkie pup health issue I have a 7 week old puppy that I have bottle fed because his momma died after giving birth. He is vicious when you pick him up. He growls,squeals,bites and show his teeth. He very skiddish and other times he is okay with you petting him. From the beginning none of my other Yorkies wanted anything to do with him and still don't. His eyes don't look like a normal Yorkies do it's hard to explain. Very sad about this one when I was his momma all this time. He knows his name and comes but sometimes when I call him he runs away. He is very playful most of the time. |

| That seems awful, he is very young still and I don't have any advice really I've never encountered a vicious puppy. But I am wondering if this may go beyond and be a medical problem? You say his eyes don't look the same as a normal yorkie, have you had him vet checked? Maybe someone else can help you out better but I would bring him to a vet and have the vet examine him. |

| Thank you. Yes he is going to the vet soon and I've already talked with her on the phone today with my concerns. He only acts that way when you pick him up and just wants to be put down then he is fine. |

| There is a neurological disorder recognized in French Bulldogs called "Rage Syndrome". You can google it. I wonder if this little puppy has it? Very sad! I'd be VERY careful who you place this pup with. Sounds like lots of heartache ahead. Good luck with him. |

| Thank you for the info. I will do the research. I am not placing the puppy he will stay with me. His mom died and I will not give him up he is who I have left of her. He is my special little boy always. I am hoping he grows out of whatever it is. |
