YT fam, need your help! Moving with yorkie to other country? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

mminichan · 01-24-2010, 02:59 PM

So, I am THINKING to move to Beijing in the near future. But I am so worry about Chloe won't be able to adjust the lifestyle over there. She does her business outside on the yard and not pee pad trained. I wonder if it is too late now to start training her to go on pee pad? She is 3 years old. I also worry since she doesn't speak ( I meant understand) any Chinese..LOL! So, she might be lost in translation?

Gosh, I just worry so much!!!
So, anyone on here move to different country with their Yorkie?? How did it go? Any advises for me? Or things I should do now to start "training" Chloe?

Also, any guideline on importing Dogs to China? I searched on few websites but didn't find any good info.

THANKS!!!!!

Good luck with the move! It is not too late to start with the pee pad training.

There was a member that posted in September I think about a book she wrote regarding traveling and spending time in France, Italy, etc.in Europe with her yorkie. Actually she wrote a cute book on it, Pennie of Pennedepie was the title. If you search this book here it gives a link where you can actually read it on line. Anyway, her profile name was "Pennie", her first name was Susan and she was from Alabama. You might try to look her up under members. Hope this helps.

Dogs do just fine no matter where they live as long as they are with their humans.

Any dog regardless of age can be trained to use potty pads.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for all the info!! I will probably start training Chloe with pee pad soon once I figure out when I am going to move over. I will give it a 6 months training period? Is it long enough??? I did try pee pad a while back when she was around 2 but she didnt get it!!! I even put a little of her own pee on it....any pee pad training advises are very much appreciated!!

Found this link that looks like it has some good info. #1 thing, you can only bring your pet(s) if you're going to China on a resident's visa. If you're moving there on a student visa or tourist visa I don't think you can bring her.
