I know his isn't health question but does anybody else's dog do this? When I ask my 10 month old yorkie mix to 'Come Here' He stares at me wags his tail and kind of turn his back end towards me while still looking forward at me. He walks away in that same position while growling and completely avoiding me. BTW: He does it to all my family members, but mostly my mom and me.

It sounds like a behavioral issue. He needs to be trained properly.

It need more love by you.

How did you figure that out Austengabriel? This behavior does not indicate lack of love.

Puppy probably gets enough, that may be the problem. He is not recognizing that his owner is the alpha yet, and needs to have more direction in that way, or as Alty put it better training. A 10 month old dog should 'come' (that is all you need to say) when called, amongst other things.

There is a saying that 'you don't do yourself any favours by not training your dog properly'.

Dogs don't really care about love, not in the way a human being does. For dogs, love is being fed, being cared for properly, having a place to sleep, being with their pack. Love won't fix a behavioral issue. In fact, most people screw up their dogs because they think love is enough. For a dog it's not.
