Ways to Train Your Yorkie Not to Bark.

Yorkies with long coats should be groomed daily. If daily combing and brushing your yorkie isn't your mug of tea, consider a shorter cut. My small Yorkshire terrier isn't much of a princess. She is pretty much a tomboy and a shorter cut fits her character also. Grooming supplies for your yorkie should ideally include : dog shampoo and conditioner, hairdryer ( with a low setting ), brush ( metal with teeth spaced broader on one side and narrower on the other ), brush ( with metal teeth with rounded ends ), and a de-matter. Don't use shampoo on your yorkies face unless it is totally mandatory as it's crucial to keep the shampoo out of her eyes. I find it best to take my yorkie into a confined space like the toilet after her bath. I shut the door so she can't run all over the house as I want to give her frequent breaks. I towel dry her being cautious not to rub her energetically with the towel as this could cause tangles. The sole problem is that some Yorkies end up being quite full of energy, and their repeated barking can be a strain to their owners and neighbours. There are numerous effective methods to train your Yorkie not to bark, but it will take time and devotion to break your companion of this awful habit. The toys will provide help to keep him busy much of the time, and it wont hurt to give him some additional attention if he begins to bark. This is a habit that has to be damaged, or else you are going to have to hear your Yorkie barking nonstop. A technique to train your Yorkie to stop barking is by instructing him to talk. Employing a toy or something to snatch your Yorkies attention is another method to get him to stop barking ,eg a squeak toy maybe a can full of cents. You'll be wanting to grab your Yorkies attention away from the stimulator he's barking about, and make him aware there's no need to be barking. I do this with her standing on the floor as she appears to cooperate better this way. I then use the brush with widely spaced teeth to delicately brush through the tangles. I use the brush for the areas that aren't too tangled. It's vital to start when your yorkie is awfully young so that she's going to get used to it before she gets set in her ways.
