Little Daisy

[Daisy Dukes]

Daisy will be 4 months old on April 10th!!!!! I got my buddy belt (i got the BB2 like suggested right now till she grows more) in the mail and I love it! Even though she will only let my husband put it on. As soon as I put her legs in she starts to cry She is just too much!! I am still trying to potty train her. Its like she will hold in her pee allll day and once I let her out to play she pees! she is about 50/50 right now. It does help that I am veryyyy patient with her. I even taught her some new tricks My next step eventually is to get her on the leash. I did put it on her an she completely froze! lol it was cute but I know that it will take some time! She did infact meet another yorkie, someone from Yorkie Talk. Chestermama (sandy) and chester came over and they played! I am so relieved she gets along with other dogs and other people!! Daisy sure does surprise me everyday with new things!

Our little ones grow so quick and just as quickly they learn all the sweet ways to train us too. Its amazing how we think we are training them and all along they are adding their little tactics that train us also! I've had yorkies over 30 yrs and they are the greatest little heart warming munipulators. I learn from my babies all the time.
I have one little girl that at bed time all babies go out to potty. Well that's the idea! everybody is then tucked in for the night and she starts this frantic barking. Like she's got her little legs crossed and she doesn't stop until we take her back outside. Then it seems like shes truly straining to make a quarter size tinkle.(We use tee pads)When she comes back in she's dancing all around so happy then she will go to sleep. I think she's actually saying I won again!! We don't take the chance this is every night she WILL NOT stop yelping!
So many adorable things about yorkies!
I know you are already in love with your little girl your fun is just beginning.

She is adorable! How fun to have a play date with another YT'er.

When Max was a puppy, he didn't want to wear a harness. He forgot about it the instant I took him outside. Same with the leash. At that time, we had a mesh vest harness that he had to put his head through.

When we switched to the BB, it was so different and comfortable that I think he was fearful that he wasn't 'hooked' up to me. Once again, the instant we were outside, he forgot about it.

I took Daisy outside and she froze! I now take her on my balcony and she's beginning to love it! I want her to start learning that once she gets her harness on that means she is going outside. You guys are amazing on here!

Happy to hear she likes the balcony. Max froze outside the first 2 - 3 days, would not take a step. My father teased me that Max was going to be an indoor dog. Nope!

Keep taking little Daisy outside, even if you are carrying her. She will learn to love the outdoors.

The other funny thing about Max was that each new surface -- pavement, sidewalk, brick, grass -- had to be conquered. He did not like going in the grass for his entire first year. Seriously, he would even pee on the pavement. I sort of miss those days because he stayed cleaner. Not until we brought Teddy home did Max like grass.

Yorkies can have lots of quirks.

Too funny! It's amazing the little routines and rituals Yorkies can come up with.

Bailey froze up the first few times outside the screened in porch. Even with her big sister there trying to get her to come play. Now.... it's like having two rockets attached to leashes. They love to run at full speed all around. Daddy has to jog at a pretty good clip to keep up. One of the most fun sights of my day is my girls getting their run in. You can just see on their faces that they are having fun.

mhhhhhh.....Body Belt BB2.......??????


First time I heard about it.... What's that???

[Daisy Dukes]

It is too funny when they become so used to a routine and you miss a step!! I actually put her on the leash and brought her outside just to see what she would do, (I wish I got it on camera) she was basically hopping on the grass and pouncing on it. It was too cute I couldn't help but just laugh. She loved it though

anakarydas it is the Buddy Belt. Its a type of harness. There are two types. There is the BB (buddy belt) and then the BB2 (buddy belt 2). One is leather and the other is synthetic leather.
