Okay I love my yorke but she is really gross - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I don't know why Hollywood makes Yorkies out to be these cute little purse dogs, I don't think they have every owned one... Here is my story
Paris is a holy terror, she bugs my others dogs to no end and I have yet to find a toy she can't destroy KONGS included.
She hunts and catches worms, bees and any other disgusting insects she can find.
She gets the other dogs poop (we are working on that) if we aren't watching her every moment, she tries to get it while they are going.
Now she has an anal gland problem (we are working on that also)
Seriously it is a good thing they come in cute little packages and are so sweet so we fall in love with them because truly they are gross little beast

You forgot to mention that they like to eat out of the cat box and trash too. I can't imagine my life without a yorkie in it.

CouversMom · 08-25-2010, 07:40 PM

Haha... It is so true! Both of mine are wild thangs and are definitely not the stereotypical 'prissy' yorkies.

pawever Yorkie · 08-25-2010, 08:05 PM

the other day, I found my yorkie licking on ladybug, and I screamed "Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!" They looked at me like I was crazy and just walked away from ladybug.

One of my boy looks at my beta fish on my coffee table like it's some kind of moving treat.

Sometimes, I want to put spycam in my house and watch what they do while I'm not at home...

They don't call em the terrible-two's for nothing!

The one bit of help I can offer you is in regards to the "poop-cuisine" and for my Bella...the Pineapple Therapy was a success for us! If you pm megansmomma for ALL her tips you just might be able to check that off your list of troubles!

Only one of my girls, Abby is a bug fancier...and bee's are her speciality! I find them in her beard all the time and "alive", too!

Abby also is a Lizard hunter and the oddest thing is Lizards have no fear of her at all...check out the one who was taunting her at the sliding glass door.

(and that's what she can do to a topknot by lunch time!)

Little does he know...Abby is a fast as lightening and can jump & nearly scale the sides of our house to attempt to bump them off! She's nuts!

The weirdest thing that Phoebe likes to do...is roll her body all over where a dead dried out worm might be crusted on our patio...yuck! Especially after a bath, too! She's a bad, bad baby

...but, these things all pale in comparison to all the other delights each of them bring every day so....I chalk it up to the terrible two's.

My Yorkie Sometimes is gross but luckily she is actually pretty neat

nana911 · 08-25-2010, 09:45 PM

Bear and Baxter just got back from the clubhouse with daddy. Not 10 minutes ago DH pulled a tick off Baxter. He's not good with his hands (long story) and dropped the tick out of the tweezers. Before we could grab it, Bug had snatched and swallowed it. A live, swollen tick. I shudder to think what kind of parasitic eggs it might be harboring.... It's gonna be at least an hour before I let her play suck face with me.....

baby yorkie · 08-26-2010, 04:05 AM

This post made me totally laugh this morning. So true, so true. My Ally is a total angel, while Tia would eat anything gross. She can catch a lizzard in a second and I have to pry it out of her mouth! Ally loves to hunt them too, but just love to play with them. They both chase those stupid toxic frogs that can kill them. Ally has learned to leave them alone, while Tia just keeps chasing while foaming at the mouth. She has also got a craving for their poop. Yes, frog poop is the thing for her. You gotta watch them every moment.

cheryl19 · 08-26-2010, 04:19 AM

Also don't forget the GAS! Mostly happens when you have company over at the dinner table.

Deuce · 08-26-2010, 04:19 AM

Lol, made me think of the other day when I hear my boyfriend from the other room say "Rizzo, please stop leaking fluids on me" naturally this peaks my interest so I wander in and I'm like "so, um, what fluids is he leaking on you?" Apparently he decided to "blow his nose" constantly on my bf's arm, then he decided to rub off the drool and snot left on his face all over the bf's shirt. It was adorable, but still, gross. Not to mention his attraction to the cat box...really, why? Why must he go after cat poop? He is learning though, and normally I gate the bathroom door when I'm at home so he cant get in there. Still, such a gross little fur-ball that I love.

Deuce · 08-26-2010, 04:21 AM

Oh, it's something in the air that is causing the drainage, it's affecting me and the pup...naturally the cat is gtg cause he doesn't get to go outside...just in case you were wondering.

Oh, I feel your pain....

I still have issues with Saydee and poop eating...

We do the pineapple thing and it helps some, but never has stopped her completely.
But, other than that Saydee is a real sweetie...
