Over protective? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

YT members Rockies is 6 months old please do not think I'm crazy. Rockie has had a time with fleas from a cat that lived in my yard over 2 months. So of course granny which is me developed a over anxious protective attitude. Rockie really runs through the house non stop all the time. To get to the point Rockie just recently went outside on the ground. He was like a new born baby the first couple of days, now I can't catch him in the yard

So he will be going out every day now. I know I was not suppose to not let him go. But I am a little better now. Confining him is not good

But he's ok. Its like he been going outside for months

I just wanted to share that. Thanks for listening.

That's not being over protective at all!

I think my two were about that age before they were allowed to go out in the grass (due to them not having all their shots for awhile).

My little ones spend one about 5 hours alone in the house. When I return, they each demand a hug, then outside. 'Round and 'round the yard; into the house; up on the sofa and down again; then outside to jump back and forth over a Yorkie-sized 8" hedge. Exactly what they need. You are absolutely right. There is no catching them when they are on a "tear." After all they are terriers!

Thank you, I know I need to let up a litte with Rockie

My family thinks I need to be in a psych ward

But I guess with time I will get better. Loving these furbabies is a lot of work
