12 Realities New Yorkie Owners Must Learn To Accept

by pawbuzz on in Dogs 223

A lover of comfort, the Yorkshire Terrier enjoys cuddling on laps and snuggling into soft pillows.

Keen of eye and sharp of tongue, he won't fail to announce strangers, often in a high-pitched voice. Early socialization is required so that he doesn't become too shrill.

Though he can be bossy and scrappy with other dogs, especially larger ones, Yorkies coexist well with other pets, but are typically overwhelmed by the roughhousing and mischief of small children. This is especially true of the smallest Yorkies — larger individuals are sturdier.

Some Yorkshire Terriers are bright and quick to learn, while others are rather willful and opinionated. Yorkies often dislike walking on a leash and may dart to and fro until taught how to behave.

If you are considering to own a yorkshire terrier, or you’ve just become a new yorkie owner, there are some realities you do need to fully accept.

    I have three two females one male all different personalities one rides one my shoulder when driving on slides right behind my back to see all other has to be in window and my other will sit in passenger seat. But all make everyday better. And believe or not my littlest Yorkie girl has a 50pound and 75 pound big pitbull friends who love them all with respect to each other and share treats always best babies

    Yep, I’ve had three Yorkies. Love them all so much, but they need constant supervision. They don’t know they’re small, and either attack or eat whatever crosses their path. Keep children’s liquid Benedryl on hand, because they get bit or stung by bugs( even eat them).
