Yorkie Puppies,
Yorkshire Terriers, affectionately known as "Yorkies," offer big
personalities in a small package. Though members of the Toy Group, they
are terriers by nature and are brave, determined, investigative and
energetic. They have long, luxurious blue and tan coats. Named for the
English city from which they originally hail, Yorkshire Terriers were
used in the nineteenth century to catch rats in clothing mills.
Surprisingly enough, in its beginnings, the Yorkie (Yorkshire Terrier)
belonged to the working class, especially the weavers; in fact,
facetious comments were often made about how the dogs' fine, silky coats
were the ultimate product of the looms. Eventually, the breed left the
workforce and became a companion animal to families of European high
society. Welcome to Puppiesforsalesite.com Looking for that

The first thing to remember is that a
Teacup Yorkie puppy is stressed when they are moved from
environments. Remember that the Teacup Yorkie puppy has been
taken away from their mom and siblings and brought to a new home with
strangers. It is important that you try to make it a
safe, quiet and peaceful environment for your new puppy.
Please treat him like a newborn. Refrain from loud
noises, screaming and keep the new Teacup Yorkie (Yorkshire Terrier)
puppy at home.
Please refrain from
taking the Teacup Yorkie puppy out to the mall, workplace or to visit
family or friends in the first two weeks to reduce stress.
Teacup Puppy Playtime: Please
ensure that your teacup Yorkie puppy y has 10 minutes of play time twice
a day. Please refrain the teacup puppy from running around longer.
Teacup puppies can get a sugar attack if they run too much at first.
Let the puppy adjust to your house for two weeks before you allow more
play time.

Unfortunately, puppies and fleas are like peanut butter and jelly — you
can't have one without the other. These bothersome, nearly
invisible parasites not only make your pup itchy, but they
can transmit disease, pass on tapeworm or even cause anemia,
especially in vulnerable youngsters. Furthermore, they can
infiltrate your home and bite people. Though hard to spot
with the naked eye, your pup will exhibit symptoms such as
scratching, biting and gnawing the skin. By the time you
actually see the fleas, you've got a full-blown infestation.
If you suspect your Yorkie Puppy is harbouring
unwanted guests, pop your pup in the bathtub and rub your
hands up and down his coat to look for flea "dirt," dark
dots that are actually flea excrement. Drop tap water on the
dots and watch for the color red to develop. If so, you've
got a problem.
Flea Control Myths
Some swear you can rid your Yorkie Puppy of fleas by feeding him
onion or garlic. And though he might enjoy a taste of
Italian cuisine, such a meal might actually produce a toxic
reaction. Furthermore, feeding puppies brewer's yeast or
applying it to the skin will have no effect on fleas.
Prescription Flea-prevention Products
Scientists have developed both topical and oral prescriptions
medications that prevent fleas from biting and reproducing.
They are administered once per month and, in our opinion,
are well worth the cost. Here's the scoop:
Oral treatments come in a pill but are not effective
until after 60 days of initial treatments. At that
point, chemicals present in the medication interrupt the
flea's life cycle and they die.
Topical products provide immediate relief and
prevent future outbreaks.
As with humans, preventative care is the best way to
ensure your Yorkie Puppy lives a healthy, happy life.
And we're sure that means he'll be teaching you to speak Dog
sometime soon.
Yorkie
Nipping
Nipping is a behavior that is completely normal
among Yorkie Puppy's, especially puppies, and has a lot to do with a
puppy’s learning process. The purpose of this article is to discuss
nipping, not biting. Nipping is a form of communication, interaction,
exploration, and play; whereas biting is a form of aggression. If your
Yorkie Puppy has a biting problem, or other aggression issues, you
should visit your vet to make sure there are no underlying physical
causes, and contact a Yorkie Puppy behavior specialist to help you
safely deal with the problem.
Puppies have no hands with which to explore the world around them, so
they must use their mouths. They mouth and nip at their mother and
littermates to communicate and play. Puppies learn something called bite
inhibition from this behavior. When puppy nips his littermates or mother
too hard, they respond with a yelp, and in the mother’s case, often with
a warning or correction. This is how they learn what’s too hard, and
what is acceptable. Puppies who are weaned and taken away from their
littermates too early do not get the chance to learn bite inhibition, so
they will be more nippy and harder to train out of nipping.
Remember that nipping is not an aggressive behavior, so do not respond
to it with aggression. Your puppy is being playful and testing his
limits through play. As with small children, a big part of learning
what’s right, is first doing something wrong. Keep a strong hold on your
patience as you train your puppy and you will do fine.
Start by giving a loud “ow!” or a shriek whenever your puppy nips. It is
important that you do this whenever your puppy’s teeth intentionally
touch your skin, not just when they nip too hard. Yorkie Puppys do not
understand the concept of “sometimes”, but they do great with “never.”
You must teach your puppy that it is never, ever ok for his teeth to
contact your skin. Come up with a command like “nice,” or “gentle” to
tell puppy when he should be careful.
When you sit down to work with your puppy, have a pocket or treat pouch
full of small, easy-to-eat treats. Hold a treat in your closed fist and
in the other hand, hold your puppy’s collar. If he nips at your hand say
“ow!” pull him away from the treat hand, and say “no, Gentle.” It is
important that you pull him away from the treat hand, rather than pull
the treat hand away from him, because that would encourage him to chase
the treat hand, making it a game. Offer him your hand with the treat
closed in your fist again, and if he sniffs it or licks it, rather than
nipping, say “good Gentle” and give him the treat.
When you are playing with your Yorkie Puppy, if he gets excited and
starts nipping, stop play immediately. In his litter, if he nips too
hard, the other puppies won’t play with him. Use the concept of social
isolation to your advantage. If you are consistent, he will learn that
nipping looses him his playmate, and that’s no fun. Also, avoid games
that make your hand or body the toy, like slap boxing or wrestling. When
you’re playing with your pup, try to keep a toy between you at all
times, this will establish what is ok to lay teeth on, and what isn’t.
Likewise, don’t play chasing games with your puppy, especially with
herding breeds. This kind of play encourages puppies to nip at your
ankles, which may be cute from a springy little puppy, but is not
acceptable behavior once he grows up to be a big, powerful Yorkie Puppy.
Another way to help your Yorkie Puppy understand that he is not to nip
people is to establish that all the humans in your home are above him in
the pack. Everyone in the family should take part in your Yorkie Puppy’s
training and care. Kids can show dominance by being in charge of
feeding. Have them always make puppy sit and stay before he can have his
food bowl. If he lunges for his food bowl before he is told it is ok,
have your child pick up the bowl and try again. A hungry Yorkie Puppy
will work hard to figure out what he needs to do to get you to leave the
bowl on the ground, so it should only take a few tries to get him to
wait for a command. You can also exert pack status with leash training.
Make sure your Yorkie Puppy always sits and is acting calm before you
put the leash on, that you walk through doors first, and that your
Yorkie Puppy does not walk in front of you. Enforcing these few positive
behaviors goes a long way towards showing your Yorkie Puppy who is boss.
ou might save money grooming
your Yorkie
Puppy at home, but you still pay
a price in a big mess. Before
grooming begins, the Yorkie
Puppy looks scared; afterward,
the room looks scary.
What can
you expect after grooming your
Yorkie Puppy? A good-looking
pooch and hair - lots of it.
Shed hair. Cut hair. Brushed
hair. Then you have clipped
toenails, fleas, dirty cotton
balls from cleaning ears, ear
powder and sudsy, dirty water.
If you
think grooming one Yorkie Puppy
is a mess, remember professional
groomers can have 20 to 40
clients a day. Here are 10 tips
to help keep the mess to a
minimum:
1. A
quality
vacuum is a must for home
grooming, especially if you
manicure coats requiring a lot
of clipping and scissoring.
You've got to suck up the hair
immediately or it will migrate
through the house. And so will
any fleas in the hair.
2.
Hair
pickups are handy for the
hair you couldn't get with a
vacuum. Several styles are
available: adhesive, washable or
squeegee. You can also brush
hair off clothing with a soft
slicker, which is what many
professional groomers do before
leaving the salon.
3. Use an
apron or
smock to keep hair off
while grooming and keep you dry
while bathing the Yorkie Puppy.
Many types and styles are
available for professional
groomers; prices range from $10
to $30. Make sure the one you
purchase is water-repellent,
lightweight and machine
washable.
4. Have a
set of
grooming clothes you can
wear without worrying about
dirt, hair or odor.
5. Use
absorbent
cotton towels for drying,
placing under a soaked Yorkie
Puppy or making a crate cozy for
a damp Yorkie Puppy. Towels
don't need to be fancy; buy them
from thrift stores.
6. A roll
of paper
towels is helpful for
spills and accidents.
7. A
lined
trash can is handy for
disposing of cotton balls and
general clean up. Plastic
grocery bags make great liners
because they are free and you
can tie them up and easily
dispose of them.
8. A
restraint
for the grooming table and tub
is also helpful because it's
safer and keeps the Yorkie Puppy
in one place. If you bathe your
Yorkie Puppy in the kitchen
sink, utility sink or bathtub,
use a rubber mat to prevent
slipping. A well-made spray
attachment is important because
it makes bathing more useful and
helps control the mess.
9. Use a
disinfectant/deodorant,
bucket, sponge and mop to clean
up.
10. When
finished,
machine-wash the towels,
clothes and apron with hot
water. Never mix dirty,
hair-covered grooming items with
your regular clothes unless you
want them covered in hair.
These tips
should keep home grooming from
becoming a hair-raising
experience - for you and the
room.
Having the right tools for the job
means less time on the table, and a
finer finish.
The promise of technology is
that it will make our lives
easier, in this increasingly
high-tech world. From computers
to shampoo, we face a stunning
array of choices. The flip side
of all that modern convenience
is information overload. When it
comes to dogs, whether you're a
novice preparing your first
prospect for the ring, or a
30-year veteran with state of
the art equipment purchased at
your first dog show in 1974,
there's hope.
Brushes and Combs If you're going
to be stranded on a desert
island with only one tool, pack
your brush. Both simple and
essential, choose it with care.
Even short-coated dogs like
Dalmatians do a certain amount
of continuous shedding. A good
brush feels comfortable in your
hand, and leaves a minimum of
loose hair after a 20-minute
brush-out. Pay attention to the
number of bristles: more is
better, for pulling hair. If
you're noticing as much hair
around the dog as on him,
chances are you have the wrong
brush.
Wood and plastic are the most
common materials. Some
professionals prefer the feel of
wood, saying it transmits into
your hand how hard you're
brushing the dog. With plastic,
you need to pay attention that
you don't brush too hard. Most
breeds will require a wire
slicker brush; for long-coated
dogs like a Shih Tzu or Poodle
in show coat, a pin brush is
often preferred.
A
boar's bristle brush pulls oils
up on short-coated dogs, for
shine. It's not a must-have, and
most people wouldn't notice the
difference right off; but when
you see a bristle-brushed dog in
the sunlight, the results can be
surprising. For some fanciers,
it's a subtlety they eventually
notice, and want to do all the
time.
While combs come in all shapes,
sizes, and finishes, any solid
metal dog comb, narrow at one
end and wider-toothed at the
other, will work for most
breeds.
Scissors Scissors suffer the
most abuse. They get knocked off
the table, dropped on the floor,
are the most-used and least
maintained tool. Buy a top-shelf
pair (and learn to maintain them
properly!). Higher quality steel
is lighter in weight, and will
scissor better, resulting in a
finer finish that lasts longer.
Save yourself the headache and
the heartache, spend the $7 to
$15, and send them out for
professional sharpening on a
regular basis.
Hair:
You can't stop pets from
shedding, but you can control
the loose hair.
Brush
your pets daily to remove
dead hair and keep their
coats in good shape.
Use
pet rakes, pet hair sponges,
adhesive tape rollers,
velour brushes, and lint
brushes on dry upholstery
and carpets to lift pet
hair.
Try a
pet hair magnet to dislodge
hair embedded in upholstery.
Use a
hand-held or upright vacuum
with a beater brush to
loosen pet hair from carpet
or furniture.
Wipe
an electrostatic dusting
cloth across furniture and
electronic equipment, or an
electrostatic sweeper across
floors, to loosen and pick
up pet hair.
Before
vacuuming, use one of the
new antistatic deodorizing
foams or sprays to break the
static charge that bonds pet
hair to fabric and carpet.
Exercise
Your Yorkie Puppy
Yorkies need regular exercise to ensure continuing good health.
Take your Yorkshire Terrier puppy for walks, run around in the
yard. Try anything to get him up and moving.
Fleas and
Ticks Off Your Yorkshire Terrier
Parasites such as fleas and ticks can cause serious diseases.
Keep your Yorkie puppy free from parasites by using the method
recommended by your veterinarian. Frontline is a great
product that we recommend.
Feed a
Good Diet
Work with your veterinarian or breeder to find the food that is
best for your Yorkie's age, size and activity level. Keep the
diet consistent. Always provide plenty of fresh, clean water.
If you decide to change the puppy's food, please make sure that
you do it slowly. Drastical changes can make your
Yorkie puppy ill.
Provide
Chew Toys
Yorkie Puppies never outgrow the need to chew. Protect your
possessions by providing a variety of chew toys.
Protect Your Yorkshire Terrier From Poisons
Make sure that your home and yard are free from poisonous
substances, such as antifreeze, which tastes good but can
cause serious illness or even death. Keep your
veterinarian's number handy in case of accidental ingestion.
Watch for frogs at night because if your puppy licks one
they are very poisonous.
Be Alert to Changing Needs
As your Yorkie ages, his needs will change. Your puppy may
require a different diet, need more sleep, and be less active.
Your Yorkie may not be as "fun" as he once was, but he is the
same dog you loved as a puppy. You should do everything you can
to pamper him in his final years. Yorkies can life
an approximate 15 years.
Take Pictures of Your Yorkie- Create An Album
Create a Puppy
Photo Album. Take lots of pictures just like
if you had a newborn. Be sure to take a
picture at least every 2 months to see the growth of your
Yorkie. It's fun and will give you lots of memories.
More importantly, a current photo will be invaluable in the
event that your Yorkie is lost.
Yorkie
Discipline
Teacup Yorkie
Dog Discipline
Dog
Discipline
One day, probably soon, your dog will do
something wrong. He might steal your T-bone steak off the kitchen counter. He
might leave a little present in your closet. What do you do? First, don�t lose
your temper. The best solutions to most dog discipline problems are patience and
prevention.
Preventive steps can make all the difference dog discipline. For instance, take
him outside for a potty many more times than you think he could possibly need
until he develops some control. Never tempt him with a steak left within his
reach. Don't leave your closet ajar. If he never gets the idea, he won't do the
terrible deed and make you miserable.
Stage 1: Verbal
Correction No matter how careful you are, your dog
(and you) will make mistakes. Try to catch him while he's still merely thinking
about doing something wrong. From the start, discourage his potential trespasses
as though you were a mother dog. Issue a low growl, or "No," with the warning
message, "Don't you dare. Don't even think about it!" He'll probably reconsider.
Be sure to give him verbal praise when he responds correctly.
The next best way to correct him is to catch him in the act. If puppies make a
housebreaking mistake during the first week in the new home, don't scold. Just
take the offender outside and praise him when he does his business in the right
place. For older puppies, a good sharp scolding is in order when they make a
mistake, whatever that mistake was. Surprise him so he's taken aback and links
the reprimand to his action.
Scolding after the act is virtually useless, but we sometimes slip up and do it
anyway, because it makes us feel better. The dog, however, rarely makes the
connection between the punishment now and the great fun then.
Stage 2: Environmental
Correction / The Set-Up Environmental corrections can bring
miraculous results. To the dog, it feels like someone's watching him all the
time, so he'd better behave. It�s a great way to train him and instill dog
discipline, as long as he doesn�t become skittish because of the technique, so
proceed within reason. Environmental set-ups work particularly well against
mischief. Many dogs are smart enough to figure out that they can get away with
things when you're not home. But, luckily, dogs are predictable�they do what
feels good and stop doing what doesn't feel good. So you can set up a situation
where the environment makes the dog feel lousy.
Here are some examples of successful set-ups suggested by professional trainers
for certain misbehaving pooches:
One dog got his kicks rummaging through the bathroom garbage and strewing the
shredded contents everywhere, especially when his owner wasn't home. The owner
cured him of this nasty habit by sprinkling a little hot pepper in the first few
layers of miscellaneous tissues and papers in that garbage can and then left for
work as usual. It took the dog exactly one experience with the peppered garbage
to cure him for good.
A dog that liked to steal things off the kitchen table never did it again after
his owner put a piece of linoleum on the table. About half of it hung over the
edge. Then he put tin cans filled with pebbles and several other miscellaneous
noisy but harmless items on the linoleum so that when the dog jumped up, the
whole pile came tumbling down on him. That surprised dog did not risk another
jump.
Set-ups are powerful medicine and can be very frightening, especially to
submissive dogs. We highly recommend that if you are having a problem with your
dog, you ask a professional trainer to evaluate your dog's personality and
suggest the right type of set-up to use. Be sure that no real harm comes to the
dog.
Stage 3: Time Out Just like for kids, time-outs work for
dogs, too. When your dog makes a big mistake, scold him and put him in his crate
for 20 minutes. Ignore him while he is inside. After time is up, let him out and
forgive him completely. Cheer him up with a little petting or play time.
Some trainers don't like to use crates this way. However, many owners find this
technique invaluable as an aid in solving a dog's discipline problems. Try
saving the time-out for serious mistakes, like biting too hard.
Stage 4: Physical
Correction We highly recommend that, except for collar
corrections, you use physical corrections only with the guidance of a
professional trainer. Physical corrections must be done properly to work, and
even then, they aren't effective on all dogs. Some dogs only return violence
with more violence. And for some dogs, physical correction is terribly
frightening and can damage their confidence.
Don't ever hit your dog, not even with a rolled up newspaper. It does absolutely
no good whatsoever to push his face into a pile of poop. The only thing that can
accomplish is to make him a poop eater.
Collar corrections
For dogs older than four months, you can use a chain or pinch correction collar
as a dog discipline tool. The collar correction is handy for problems around the
house or when you're out for walks�whenever you can be there personally. An
important warning: Never leave a correction collar on an unattended dog! He
could choke and even kill himself (many have done so)!
Collar corrections consist of a quick, snapping pull, followed by an immediate
release. Dragging on a correction collar can cause the dog to become immune to
its effects. Constant pulling can even damage his throat. If you don't already
know how, see a professional trainer to learn successful collar correction
technique.
Other forms of physical correction
Most dog trainers use several forms of physical correction as needed. These may
include scruff shakes, alpha rolls and taps on the chest or under the chin. Some
use throw chains, shaker cans and squirt guns. Consult a professional trainer to
learn how, when, and if you should use these corrections on your dog.
Summary Many dogs need physical correction at some
point in their lives, especially during adolescence when they tend to challenge
authority. However, inappropriate use of physical correction can trigger dog
aggression or create a fearful animal. Use verbal correction whenever possible,
but learn some physical correction techniques appropriate to your dog just in
case you need them
SOCIALIZATION FOR TEACUP PUPPIES
Socialization for Teacup
Puppies and dogs is very
important. Teacup Puppies and
juvenile dogs that are not
provided enough socialization in
early years can develop high
levels of aggression towards
other dogs, other pets and even
people. Other puppies that are
not properly socialized may
become very timid and easily
frightened, which also can lead
to aggression if these puppies
feel cornered or trapped.
Birth to three months
Puppies and Teacup Puppies
actually learn their first
socialization lessons from the
first day that they are born.
They learn to communicate to
their mother and littermates
through vocalization and
physical contact and come to
find comfort in being with and a
part of the litter. This is very
important especially before the
tiny puppies open their eyes and
are able to move about a bit
better.
After approximately three weeks
the Teacup puppies are more
active and playful and
interested in exploring. They
don't go far without the rest of
their pack and they learn that
they can be secure in their
environment. The puppy becomes
more confident and is more
likely to venture out on his or
her own, but never very far from
the mother and littermates.
As the Teacup puppy matures up
to about 12-14 weeks of age they
are really learning about
socialization principles.
Through playing with the other
puppies they are learning bite
inhibition, how to communicate
and how to understand what the
pack hierarchy is. They learn
how to interact with the other
puppies as well as the other
dogs they are exposed too.
These Teacup puppies learn that
they are safe and secure and
start to gain their own
confidence and understanding of
the world. When puppies are
removed from their litter and
mother too soon they become
either aggressive or timid in
their attempts to figure out
their place in the family.
Puppies that are taken away from
the litter before eight weeks
are typically very difficult to
train and may have separation
anxiety problems as they mature.
It is very important for
socialization opportunities that
are safe and controlled to
continually occur for the puppy
and for young dogs. It is
absolutely critical that puppies
not be overly stressed or
fearful during the socialization
stage as this can impact their
future development. Owners can
help to effectively socialize
puppies and dogs by:
Taking them into different environments under safe conditions. For
example walking in the front
yard instead of the backyard
once the puppy or dog is
comfortable on a leash.
Introducing the new people to friends and family members when they come
to visit rather than putting the
Teacup Puppy in a separate room
or area of the house.
Allowing the Teacup puppy to meet other, friendly, well-trained dogs and
puppies. Only do this after the
puppy has completed the full set
of puppy vaccinations.
Take the puppy to the park, walk them at different times of the day so
they see different people, and
experience traffic once they are
leash trained.
Allow the Teacup puppy to stop and sniff and investigate new things.
Encourage them to learn about
their environment and understand
that new things, objects, pets
and people are not a threat.
Take socialization slowly, start small and quiet and work towards large
and noisy. A quiet street is a
great start but walking along a
major traffic area is likely to
be far too intimidating for a
puppy until they are more
comfortable with passing
traffic.
Consider a puppy or dog obedience class as a way to combine
socialization with learning in a
controlled and safe environment.
If you can't take your Teacup
puppy or dog to a class there
are some ways to encourage
socialization right in your own
area. Try taking the pupy with
you at least one walk a week to
somewhere you have never gone
before. If the dog or puppy is
very nervous or timid or even
aggressive, start with quiet
areas such as walking paths or
even a hike in the country. As
the puppy or dog becomes more
confident, start moving to a
more busy area such as a city
street or even a public park
that allows dogs. At this time
it is important to keep the dog
or puppy on a leash to prevent
them from becoming nervous or
frightened and running off. If
the puppy starts to try to turn
and run, go to it and provide
comfort. As soon as the puppy is
calm repeat the exercise or
encourage the puppy to look
around. Do not take the puppy
immediately out of the area or
away from the situation. This
will simply reinforce that being
timid or aggressive gets him or
her out of the socialization
training, which is opposite of
what you are trying to do.
Remember that socialization is a
gradual process and all puppies
will be somewhat scared of new
things. Take your new Teacup
puppy with you whenever possible
and let him or her get to
experience all kinds of new
smells, sights and sounds.
Introduce your puppy to cats,
birds, and other pets. Cats that
are familiar with dogs are
usually pretty accepting of
puppies, however it is important
to very closely supervise this
interaction. If you don't have a
dog friendly cat in your home,
ask around and see if a
neighbor, friend or co-worker
may have a cat you could allow
you puppy to socialize with. If
you live in the country don't
forget to let them learn about
sheep, cattle, horses or other
livestock in the area. Puppies
that are well socialized are
less likely to become problems
with chasing livestock, a big
consideration if you live in the
country.
Finally, don't forget about
kids. If you don't have children
in your house be sure to find a
friend or family member that has
dog-friendly kids and let your
puppy spend some time
socializing with children that
are experienced with dogs and
Teacup puppies.
Puppy Training And Leash Training
For dog
lovers, puppy training is the first responsibility that comes with
acquiring a new puppy. Bringing a puppy home is a wonderful experience
that comes with responsibilities, like bringing home a new born baby.
With patience and love you can accomplish anything. Puppies
are willing to learn and love you back.
Puppy training
should begin as soon as the puppy sets feet in the house. This is quite
different from adult dog house training. It requires basic dog obedience
training and teaching the dog new old tricks plus, dog leash training
using dog training commands. You can get useful information from online
dog training to assist you with this.
The best time to begin dog leash training using positive reinforcement
is as soon as a puppy is old enough to be taken in to your home.
Positive reinforcement means that you should praise and reward your dog
greatly for all commands it accomplishes right. Dog training is fun if
you have the professional course outline for use at home for positive
dog training.
Taking your puppy on a leash walk teaches it to learn how to follow you
without breaking out of your hold. The leash is used to teach dog come,
teach dog sit, toilet train dog. The leach is a unique dog training aid
that goes a long way to ensure dog obedience training is successful
while you train a dog at home.
Your puppy will get the needed exercise during leash training, and also
learn to urinate or defecate outside as you walk it. A lot of discipline
is instilled in the dog during leash training because this is when your
puppy is tempted to break lose and really be a free spirited dog by
negating dog puppy training commands. Train your dog on a leash for
quick positive results.
It is had to talk puppy training without the leash as an important dog
training tool. It is the leash that allows you to really put the puppy
under control as you walk it and teach it to walk with you and not to be
distracted or form the habit of wandering away from you to do doggy
things.

dogs will remain with it and make your relationship unsatisfactory.

BRINGING YOUR TEACUP HOME- MORE REFERENCES
When you have
decided on a new Teacup Puppy, make sure to take a little time
to prepare for the puppy by "puppy-proofing" you home and making
a safe place for this new family member.
1. Some Teacup Puppies chew on anything available to them.
Have a few safe toys available and move other objects where they
cannot reach them. For example, keep shoes in a closed closet
and items picked up off the floor.
2. Puppy space: Give your Teacup Puppy a bed and a regular
place to sleep. Have water and food dishes available at all
times. Remember that Teacup Puppies do not twice a day.
They eat little bits at a time. It is important that you do not
remove their food so they do not get a sugar attack.
As you are housetraining, keep a lot of newspaper or training
pads around and place the Teacup Puppy on it, especially after
meals, to train him to go potty on the newspaper and not the
rug. As they learn, cut back on the amount of paper and keep
taking them out outside to do their business. Use a baby gate to
confine your Teacup Puppy to spaces for their use to prevent
accidents all over the house. You can also use the
bathroom or kitchen area for confinment.
3. Be prepared to have a few trips to the veterinarian.
Locate a vet in your area and a place to take your Teacup puppy
in for a health checkup and the appropriate shots necessary for
his or her age. Your vet will give you a schedule of necessary
shots and other health suggestions.
4. Realize that your Teacup Puppy's happiness and future
behavior is in your hands. Plan to train and socialize the puppy
so that they behave properly. Plan to leave your Teacup puppy
alone for periods of time so that there is not an overdependence
on people being around all the time.
The most important thing to remember is that Teacup Puppies
need to eat. Try to keep your puppy at home after
your purchase him for the first two weeks. Please refrain
from visiting friends, relatives or taking the puppy out to
malls. Be patient and ensure that he has had
enough time to adapt well therefore you do not stress your
Teacup Puppy at first.
