Puppyhood is an exciting time for any dog owner. You get to watch your little ball of fluff grow and learn new things every day. For Yorkshire Terrier owners, this time can be doubly thrilling.
Not only are you getting to know your new best friend, but you’re also training them to be the well-behaved dog you’ve always wanted.
Of course, like with any new endeavor, there will be some bumps along the way. But with a bit of patience and a lot of love, you’ll get through it and end up with a pup that’s the envy of all your friends. In this article, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about training your Yorkshire Terrier puppy in their first year.
So what can you expect? Well, Yorkshire Terriers are quick learners, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble teaching them the basics. However, they can also be stubborn, so patience is key.
Here’s what you need to know about training your Yorkshire Terrier puppy throughout the key milestones in their first year:
Weeks: 1-12
The first 12 weeks of your Yorkshire Terrier puppy’s life are crucial for their development and growth. It’s critical to let them stay with their mother during this time so they can learn essential socialization skills and bond with her.
Once they are around 12 weeks old, you can start thinking about taking them home and beginning their training.
If taken too early, your puppy is at risk of developing anxiety and eating problems. As you wait for your puppy to be ready to come home to you and your family, you can take this as an opportunity to puppy-proof your home in the meantime.
Make sure all potential hazards are out of reach, and that there are plenty of toys and chewable objects available. This will help your puppy feel comfortable and safe in their new surroundings when they finally come home.
During the 8-9 week period, your puppy will receive its first vaccinations, such as shots for parvo and distemper. It’s vital to keep up with your puppy’s shots to help protect them from disease.
As for weeks 9-10, this is the time when the little Yorkie puppies will start to show some slivers of silver or gold fur coloring on the tops of their heads.
