My 5 Yr Old Yorkie Hates My New Puppy

Have a 2 yr old Yorkie hates teens, toddlers, big dogs most people. Well if truth be told only likes my husband and I, we are both older seniors. We had a private trainer when dog was puppy and he listens to us very well, walks are about an hour twice a day and toys and playing with us are thru out the day.

My 5 yr old yorkie hates my new puppy. The new puppy is a so-called “Morkie,” one of the “designer” mixed-breeds that are trendy these days. Pretty much universally, these puppies come from pet stores or are sold over the Internet, which means that returning them is not, and should not be, an option. My dog is a 1 year old rescued Lab tgat had been abused. His chart when we got him said he hates toys. We thought that he’d just never had the opportunity. All dogs like toys right? He hates them. I even tried the “play with it trick” didn’t work. He’s afraid of some. If they sqeak or click he is so scared he hides. Hi Dr.Chris, I have a almost 8 yr old cockapoo, Abby She HATES to be groomed HATES it!! I had been giving her Benadryl for awhile..seemed ok with it …but now it’s not having the calming effect on her as it used to and her grooming day is a nightmare!! We have to muzzle her […] Hi, I just got a new puppy a few month ago too. I have a five year old yorkie who is totally anti social with other dogs, and now my new puppy girl who loves to play all the time with him. It took my boy yorkie to realize this one puppy isn't leaving soon. We had to supervise play time because he always growled and bared teeth at her.

I have 3 yorkies, two 5 years old weigh 6.5lbs and one 3 year old weighs 5.5lbs. None of them are fussy eaters and will eat anything I put down to them. I have always fed them on royal canin Yorkshire terrier. My issue is the kibble is so small two of them practically inhaled it without chewing. He also gets a Phycox canine joint supplement everyday, along with a Schiff Mega Red krill oil soft gel. I feed my 12 week old Great Dane the puppy formula with a couple of teaspoons of the canned food 3 times per day. She also get a krill oil soft gel everyday too. I just mix the foods with some filtered water, and mix well. Approximately one week before bringing the new puppy home, arrange for the older dog to meet the puppy at a park or anywhere that is not his home territory. Lavish the older dog with affection and assurance as he sniffs and greets the new dog. Take them on a walk together if the puppy is old enough to be led on a leash. My boyfriend and I just rescued an 8 month old hound mix and my dog who is 5 years old will not accept him. My dog is very possessive of me and will grow at the new puppy when he goes anywhere near him. He has snapped on him when he went over to get closer to him on the couch but no one was bit.

Both of the dogs are girls and while the yorkie is not being aggressive by any means she is refusing to play with the puppy. We just lost another dog and the yorkie was very close to it so she could just be refusing to accept the puppy as a "replacement". She also seems to be very annoyed by the puppy. The yorkie is very smart and knows that she would be in trouble is she hurt the puppy but it. My gsd is 11yrs old, he has been fantastic with a whole range of family/babies and children and pets that have lived with us all, puppies birds,cats kittens un neutered male dog female dogs…we have introduced him to our new member of our house,she is a female 8 week old Doberman pup, Kane instantly took a very bad liking to her and has. An older resident dog will be less threatened by a puppy, than it will by another adult dog. A pup or adolescent will most likely accept either. Give a thought to size and breed characteristics. If your current dog is from a breed with a strong prey-drive, introducing a new puppy who is a small, fast-moving breed is probably not the best idea. When switching to a new brand, it’s important to do it slowly by mixing in a bit of new food with the old, increasing the ratio of new food over a period of several weeks. Yorkies tend to be sensitive to sudden changes in diet and it may cause digestive problems, diarrhea, or refusal to eat if it’s done too suddenly.

To remove the fear of drinking, you can try to use a new water bowl or you can try to put his water bowl in a different place. Can my dog drink milk? At puppy age, many animals produce the lactase enzyme, responsible for decomposing the lactose. I recently lost my girl yorkie, her companion died 2 yrs earlier, they got along great, they had herat problems, they live 12 yrs, I was devastated and depressed so my girlfriend flew from FL bringing me her yorkie, Max, (fixed) who is 5 yrs old, she knew that being a house with no children and both of us working from home would be a perfect. When I first got Lara (Siberian Husky puppy), my Shiba Inu, Sephy (5 years old then) did not really care much for her either. From Sephy’s point of view-1. Lara is competition for food, affection, and toys, 2. Lara is noisy, 3. Lara disrupts his schedule, 4. Lara unbalances play dynamics with Shania (our other Husky) 5. My boyfriends 8 year old italian greyhound hates my 12 week old catahoula puppy. He will try and play with her but quits when he realizes she can keep up with him and wants to play back. He has been the only dog in the house for 8 years and my boyfriend never solcialized him with other dogs when he was younger.
