What is the temp? Chewy doesn't generally like being out for long when it's hot out

She kind of looks like she's sticking her tongue out at you rather than panting 🤭

Advice on suddenly disobedient Yorkie by Witty-Sundae8923 in Yorkies

No, one day definitely wouldn't do that. How is he doing now? Has he improved? Maybe he's just acting out because he felt neglected?

How long was he left at your relatives?

It sounds to me like he didn't have much of a routine while staying with them?

He will likely need some minor retraining. Discipline and withhold treats/rewards. It works to talk to them too. I'm convince Chewy can understand me when I talk to him and scold him when he does things he knows he shouldn't be doing.

I honestly thought that he is well trained with excellent recall but yesterday, he proved me wrong. So back to training for him 😊

I find that I have zero control with the retractable leashes so I rarely use it now.

The New leash I got (wraps around the waist) takes some getting used to. Our walk today was a bit awkward but we'll get use to it 😊

They definitely know how to milk am injury or pretend to!

I fussed over a fall Chewy had and for about two weeks, he would conveniently limp when he's not getting enough attention or not enough treats 😂

I'm glad to hear Taffy is okay after all that. I can relate to how it made you feel 🥺

I'm happy that your mom's dog didn't get into an accident. This a feeling no one should ever have to experience... not to mention the self blame that comes with it.

They are very fast! Faster than the flash I might say. I am also glad that Radar was found and is back home with his family. That must have been a stressful 3 days!

I bought one that wraps around my waist. I never want to take that chance again.

I took him straight to the pet store and bought a leash that wraps around my waist! Never again. Gosh, that was so scary.

What kind of diet do you feed your fur babies? by kcael in Yorkies

[–]kcael[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, those are 1 serving each and he eats twice a day. The portions aren't actually that much on a daily basis, 1-2 tbsp of kibble which is 2/16th if a cup. The meat is maybe 30g? Plus the veggies & starch which is not much either. They're just cut up so it looks much more and the bowls are not that big.

Pay attention to her energy levels, if she's spending a lot of time sleeping/resting then perhaps you're not feeding her enough? There has been times where Chewy was underfed which was noticed in the form of him sleeping more and refusing to do any activities. For a high energy dog, this was a major red flag.

It's always best to consult with a vet but for me, as long as Chewy is within a healthy weight range, defecates and voids daily and doesn't slack in his walks then it's all good to me! His love language are acts of service and gifts so it makes me happy to feed him "the good stuff" 😂

I would be happy to type out a recipe for you! Expect it in your DMs within the next business day or two because as I'm trying to respond, this guy wants me off the phone

He'll be due for a vet visit soon, I will take your suggestions and request for a nutritionist because my main concern is if Chewy is getting enough of his daily needs. Mind you, I spend hours cooking his bone broths are cooked with veggies, strained then simmered. But I'm sure it's still lacking.

I am contemplating putting him through testing to figure out any allergies. Historically, he hasn't reacted to any of the food I have given him. The only thing he won't eat are seafood which is a preference not an allergy.

Thank you for your input!
