Posted 12 May Good evening. I am seeking the best way to find a new home for a young dog, about 10 months old. Overall, she is a well bred and friendly animal, however she has lived up to her breed standard of food fussiness to a fault. Please consider I have taken steps as extreme as feeding her twice a day for months from the time I brought her home to make sure she grew up well, and recently she has begun acting in a manner detrimental to her health, i.e. fussiness to the point of losing weight, with the same level of care. Needless to say, I am burnt out and would like to make plans to rehouse her with a family or a person familiar with the breed of Yorkie. Possibly this refresh might help her become a normal dog of eating food given to her. What organization near Karlsruhe would you recommend to guide the rehousing process? Thank you. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 13 May So the puppy is no longer a sweet playful puppy but a growing dog and no longer interesting to your family. Didn't you know that happens? Puppies turn into dogs. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like 4 times a day? And even adult ones need 3. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We had previously had a Yorkie out of the Hamburg Tierheim. The pups came to us at 11 weeks old - they will be 2 years old this month. The first-born (Alfons) was forecast to be large for a Yorkie & he is now just over 5 kgs. He loves his food - epscially cheese - & will devour a serving of fresh meat in seconds. The second-born (Joker) is smaller & extremely fussy about food & will almost only look at fresh meat if it is thrown to him well cut-up. Neither of them eat tinned food. Both are good for loooong walks & defend the garden area. They HATE the postman (who does not have to enter the property).

Posted 23 May I carry a ziploc bag of treats for homeless people with dogs. I also usually snag the hotel room sewing kits, etc, and bag them up too. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
