Answer #2

tap his nose when hes doing it… not after… if you tap his nose while hes doing it.. he will see if he dose it he gets hit… so he will stop

Answer #3

Get a clue. The puppy is craving ‘greens’, likely because he has a case of worms, intestinal parasites. A dog that chews grass is trying to balance out an ‘acid’ system, which is ‘friendly’ to such beasties. And if you’ve got kids, especially crawlers, likely they’ve got worms too, picked up from floor, hands, things in mouths, dog-licked faces, etc.

The rule is, “kids and dogs? worm them both every 6 minths.”

A vet will give you worming tablets, also leave cut up celery in the dog dish, and see if the little guy goes for it. If so, you’ve got a ‘cure’ right there in the frig. If not, try other cut up greens. Greens always balance out an acid system. Another thing regarding people: cancer cells cannot survive in a pH balanced system.
To your health and that of your Yorkie!
