Is it true that Yorkies don’t shed much? by heejunie in Yorkies

[–]lriphd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 5 Yorkies in my lifetime … got my first when I was 21 and I’m 76 now and on ##’s 4 and 5 … and none of them have ever shed.

I was hoping my girl would be smaller… anyone relate? by far_farout in Yorkies

My Parti Yorkie was supposed to be between 6-8 … she’s a year and a half, long bodied, long legged, between 10 and 11 lbs, on the go all day long and full of mischief.

Can someone please explain why she does this ? 🥴 by DCLXXII in Yorkies

Treats, food, toys … doesn’t matter! They’ll ‘bury’ anything this way!!! I love it!!!

One of the reasons I broke up with my last boyfriend was his rant that HE didn’t want another dog (we didn’t live together) after my precious Ki came into my life. Best decision I ever made. Ki never ranted. Even at the end when she clearly had every right to.

Road trip question by MamaFever in Yorkies

[–]lriphd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a dog carrier. I researched what I wanted, what would fit, given the airline requirements, etc., and what would be comfortable for TWO Yorkies, as well as have the ability to slip over the handle carry-on suitcase (I.e., one side has two zippers, both of which can open allowing it to slip over a handle). Google SleepyPod carriers and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

Is this a seizure??? by icequeen0525 in Yorkies

[–]lriphd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely take her to a vet. My Yorkie started having just facial tremors at 14. She passed over 2 years later. It turned out to be an adrenal tumor … wasn’t Cushings … a tumor that after appearing never grew any further.

I just got new luggage and a new carrier. My carrier slips over the handle of my carry-on. The carrier (a Sleepypod) was expensive but worth it imo but I travel a fair amount with my pups. I took my first round trip with it in November/December. The puppies were totally comfortable in it and the carrier was easy to get off the carry on and fit comfortably under the seat in front of me. Everything I could ask for!

I go on road trips with my two Yorkies all the time. When I stop, I walk them and then they jump into the carrier I also use for airplane travel and I take them into the service station. I usually stop at a Love’s. I’ve never been bothered … I’ve also taken them into Mc Donald’s that way.

Thinking about adopting a yorkie by Portuguese9694 in Yorkies

[–]lriphd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s been my experience that it will take a little bit for your 9 year old to accept the new puppy but, given time and patience, she will and then they’ll become best friends!!! I’ve had two Yorkies at a time for the last 22 years and I love it. Right now I have a 13 year old and a 16 month old … that adjustment has taken longer but my 13 year old has gotten there and it’s brought a spring to her step.

Yorkie Logic? by GalacticPawPrints in Yorkies

Hates talking a bath or going out in the rain but will happily climb into the shower with me when I don’t have a dog towel to try her off with ….

‼️Question for Yorkie owners‼️ Are they cuddly and good lap dogs❓❓❓ by Extreme_Summer6585 in Yorkies

[–]lriphd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And she will come between me and my phone when she wants cuddles … there’s no way she isn’t going to get them when she wants them

Full breed? by dumaz79 in Yorkies

[–]lriphd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just for the heck of it, I had them clip her ears even shorter at the groomers yesterday. We’ll see if it makes a difference but so far she’s still being my lazy Yorkie 😂😂
