Will she ever stop!?!? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

autumn star · 05-30-2007, 10:18 AM

Will Autumn ever stop chewing things or is that something that Yorkies always do? I know that puppies are chewers but it seems that yorkies are always chewers, is there any truth behind this? She is quick to, you drop it and she's got it off and running in a flash. I swear it does not even have to hit the floor. She is only 8 months though!

i think they stop with age. although lexi really never chewed up anything..
i still have her first toys...maybe shes the wierd one

She will stop as she ages. Chachi was a chewer also when he was a puppy. At 1 1/2 he chewed up his dog bed and that is the last thiing he chewed up. That has been over a year ago.

Josie never chewed anything either. She was an easy puppy.

Jojo on the other hand is the biggest chewer...the corner of the walls, Josie's toys, my plants, cabinet corners and anything he can get. He's almost 8 months also.

This little guy is exhausting...but I LOVE HIM!!

I sure hope they grow out of it, lol! Koda chews on everything! Even when he is sitting on me or beside me while I am on my laptop. Their he is trying to chew on the corner of it, lol! He has many of his own toys that he plays and chews on all the time, but the toilet paper, geesh he can make a complete mess with that, lol! And it seems to be his favorite

(no, we don't pomote TP shredding either) lol!

mrlmonroe · 05-30-2007, 11:41 AM

My girl chews too - but not too bad.

I do think it's funny though. Whenever she seems my underwear (thongs) she runs like a dickens away with it.....it's so funny. I often fear that we will have guests, and one will peek out from beside a chair or couch...that I didn't catch her with

Mine never really chewed, but they have plenty of bones and kongs filled with peanut butter...

LullaBelle · 05-30-2007, 12:14 PM

Wobie doesn't chew anything either. (Knock on wood...)

judyeve · 05-30-2007, 04:44 PM

Max has just begun to grow out of it. He's a little slower to grab whatever falls on the floor. I swear, he used to have dog ESP that I was going to drop something because it was in his mouth before it even hit the floor!

Now, I can usually grab it before he gets it. Of course, I have to push him out of the way. I also trained (bribe?) him to "give it to Mommy" with a treat if it's something that could hurt him. I love bribery. It always works!

Catrina · 05-30-2007, 04:49 PM

Princess doesnt chew on the things that a lot of dogs chew on like leather and wood, but she always seems to have to be constantly chewing on her toys or bone.. or something random like my hairband... i think she ripped like at least 100 of my hairbands..

LuvMySissy · 05-30-2007, 04:52 PM

Angel was a major chewer. Now that she has all her adult teeth in, just turning 7 months, she only chews her toys (unless she tips over a garbage can - then anything goes)!!

marcerella02 · 05-30-2007, 05:08 PM

Layla is a chewer.. more like a destroyer.. but thankfully only of toys that she knows are hers... and only her plastic toys.. not her nice soft ones...
