Victoria Stilwell vs Bailey, the Bedroom-Blocking Yorkie in Glasgow

A fearless Yorkie is wrecking Phil and Jackie's love life. Victoria Stilwell heads to Glasgow to face Bailey - a nine-month pup who rules the sofa, table and bed. Meet Bailey, a six-inch Yorkshire Terrier who’s convinced he’s head of the household. He blocks Phil, an assistant governor at a high-security prison, from sitting with partner Jackie, guards their bed at night, and even eats pasta with parmesan at the family table. When he’s not bullying for attention with his beloved rubber boot, he’s chasing Phil off the sofa and out of the bedroom. Can Victoria Stillwell restore order without shouting or scare tactics? Victoria begins in observation mode, witnessing Bailey’s sofa aggression and bedroom guarding firsthand. She shows Jackie and Phil a simple “backing in” body-language technique to reclaim the couch safely, then gets Phil bonding through fast, positive sit training. Next, she tackles Bailey’s fussy eating by warming dog food and adding a hint of garlic for aroma, guiding him to eat from a bowl on the floor for the first time. Playtime is reset on Phil’s terms with “constructive play” and clear stop cues, while Jackie and Holly commit to more enrichment to curb stress and boredom. The toughest test arrives at night: Bailey is banned from the bedroom, settled behind a baby gate with Jackie’s-scented bedding. After four hours of protest, he finally settles. Weeks later, Bailey is calmer, eating properly, sharing the sofa, and sleeping in his own bed. There’s even a new puppy, Molly, learning sits at just 10 weeks. No more hotels, no more midnight standoffs - just a happier home, and a proud Yorkie owner at last. #ItsMeOrTheDog #VictoriaStilwell #Yorkie #DogTraining #ResourceGuarding #Glasgow #RelationshipRescue
