Miniature yorkies...

[Tippy_Luvver]

do u take your miniature yorkie on walks in winter...mine now prefers going outside then on her pee-pads...but idk how we can do that in winter...

[lara2913]

We take walks all year round, get her a nice warm coat, and perhaps even some boots if her feet get cold

Btw, there is no such thing as a miniature yorkie

mine go outside no matter what the weather. we both prefer it that way. if its just out for a quick pee then she doesn't get a coat but if we're gonna be out there for more then 5 minutes she's gets a nice warm coat

i would like to get her boots maybe snow boots bcuz last year she wanted to go outside during the winter for her potty break but didnt like touching her snow (i no i wudn't with my bare feet) i got her newborn socks and they r way too big-they just fall right off. i looked at PETCO and the boots cost $30 dollars!!! they werent even her size. any tips or ideas?

I walk mine when the weather is nice. Mine don't like the cold weather, so they are also paper trained.

Brownie seems to love the cold but i still bundle him up to go peepee

Mine go out year round with no booties and no coats. They have a doggie door, with a garage over it on the outside, to the back yard. They run & play and do business. We get alot of wind here by the lake, small dog warnings. I think they spend more time outside in the winter than they do in the heat of the summer. Too many big dogs in the neighborhood for me to walk them. We snow-blow paths around the yard for them in the winter & spend alot of time playing flying-yorkie frisbie catch year round.

last year we got a foot and a half of snow. So i had to go out there and shovel a path in the grass for morgan to go. after a day she didn't bother to use the path and went running around on top of the snow because she was too small to fall thru it.

If you just want them for warmth or short trips outside where they won't get soaking wet, you can buy infant mittens (the kind without holes for fingers) and sew velcro at the top. I bought two pair of fleece mittens at Target for two dollars. Gus likes these better than the expensive hard type of boot.

Mine don't like going out in the snow. The just stand there and shiver..

I have never heard of a miniature yorkie....do you mean a puppy?

Do you crochet or knit? There are free patterns online for all kinds of yorkie sweaters, boot, etc, etc...
Or use the baby socks and tie them on with some yarn, not too tight though.
