Silly me! I just realized something...I dont have a cockapoo. I have a yorkiepoo! I had been looking for a cockapoo, but everyone I saw was way out of my price range. So, we ended up getting a yorkiepoo instead. I kept getting mixed up when people asked me what kind of pup I had, saying cockapoo instead of yorkiepooh. I think I was so excited to see a group where I could ask questions that I posted without realizing. But, alot of the stuff you mention about your pups are similar to mine.
At any rate, I guess I need to go and see if there's such a group for YORKIEPOOs! Thanks for all of your help and info! I may still lurk just to get some insight on properly rearing my pup! Oh, I tried the kong and she loved it. I didnt fill it with anything. I gave it to her empty just to see how she'd take to it. So, the next time I am at the store, I will purchase something to put inside of it! --- In [email protected], Helen Martin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have used the kong as well. There are little refiller treats that you put in them. You can also buy the Kong at Petco. They are a little pricey when you look at it (around 10dollars) but it is worth it in the end. > Peanut butter is also perfectly fine to give her.
