Hello Everyone, My question is this… I have a 3 month old male pyr. I am a first time owner of a pyr, in the past
I have had poodles and rotts. I didn’t
know that pyr’s are such sensitive creatures. I usually take “Rex” out to the
bathroom once through the night. I have
found that when you say “lets go potty” he
just looks at me and then lays his head back down to sleep. I know that he has to go because after we
are outside he always wets and I do think that asking a pyr puppy to hold it for
an entire night (8 hours) is to long. Well, If I pull at Rex in order to get him to stand
up and go outside he “yelps” So, I find myself sitting down next
to him rubbing his tummy and talking with him for a short while. Then he gets up on his own and goes outside. Do all pyrs require so much attention and coaxing
in order to accomplish a task? It seems
like I have to hug Rex a lot and tell him that his mother loves him. In fact he seems to seek out human contact.
This is unlike any other breed I have
ever had before. |
