Yorkshire Terrier Training Tips – Does Your Yorkie Need More Time And Attention From You?

If you are the proud owner of a Yorkshire terrier, you already know that they can be very possessive of their owners. In fact, your Yorkie may want your full attention at all times. This can be problematic if you have other pets in your home.

I have worked this out by spending some alone time with each of my three dogs. This may sound a bit over the top, but it works extremely well. Just like with children, each of your dogs deserves to be the center of attention for at least a few minutes every day.

In the morning I let the three dogs out. When we get back, I take one of the dogs upstairs with me for about fifteen minutes. I tell him what a wonderful dog he is and allow him to snuggle with me on the bed. He jumps up and down and wags his tail with delight.

Then I take him downstairs and go for a walk with another one of my Yorkies. He loves walking alone with me, even if it’s only for ten minutes or so. Later in the evening I spend time with the third dog. For me it is a joy to have my Yorkshire terriers as pets, so spending time with each one of them is my way of thanking them for their company.

Think about how you can incorporate this idea into your daily routine. She will find that each of her dogs will become happier and she will enjoy spending time with only one dog at a time.
