Small in size but big in personality, the Yorkshire Terrier makes a feisty but loving companion.
The most popular toy dog breed in the U.S., the “Yorkie” has won many fans with his devotion to his owners, his elegant looks, and his suitability to apartment living.
It’s been often said that dogs are the only creatures on earth that love you more than they love themselves. Well, Yorkshire Terriers are no exception!
But sometimes, we take our furry friends and wonderful companions for granted. There are important life lessons that are sometimes easy to forget in our hectic lives, that all Yorkie owners must never forget.
If we want to pay back the favor and give them the best life possible, these 20 important reminders should serve you well as awesome Yorkie owners. The last one (#20) brought me to tears…

Great article. I’m a new yorkie mom so I often wonder if I’m doing things right. I baby and snuggle him a lot lol. I also let him have his outside playtime where he tends tobget very dirty. I’ve been fussed at often for this. Many people say he shouldn’t be playing outside but he loves it. I never leave him unattended. Hes a very free spirited lil guy and I tend to encourage that. I often doubt myself on how I care for him. People around us tend to think I’m not over protective enough but I can’t bring myself to contain him. It would break his heart. He doesn’t want to be a full time lap dog. This article has reassured me that I’m doing things right.
