Informative vid. I have a Yorkie from a reputable breeder in my area - he is a great dog. His temperament is very likeable - calm, friendly with other dogs and people, more so people because most other dogs are bigger than he. One thing that's needed with Yorkies is to practice discipline on a constant basis. They can be stubborn. Mine is 5 pounds or so, I take him almost everywhere I go. He is also a picky eater, so frustrating at times.
@MeganGraham4 жыл бұрын
It sounds like you have done a great job socializing him, as well as training him. I agree that training has to be done on a consistent basis....or your yorkie will start to train you! Have you tried different foods? I buy food from Just food for dogs and they love it. Mine are allergic to chicken and turkey so they eat: lamb, beef and white fish.
@mistermatsuda4 жыл бұрын
@@MeganGraham I've tried a ton of different foods, he eats now without too much issue. Just food for dogs is great from what I've heard. As far as socializing him, as a puppy with all his shots, I took him to a private park in which there are a good number of small dogs there. He can hold his own with bigger dogs too if they get in his grill too much. He's super sweet with people though. He puts a lot of smiles on people's faces and goes to them on command when I see people want to pet him. He'd be an awesome therapy dog.

I lost my sweet baby girl a few years back, she was 13 yrs old. She was a perfect baby, short snout, short little legs, and the perfect shaped head. She was truly my baby, ive been searching for one that looked just like her. I even posted a pic of her online asking if any breeders had a mom and dad that looked like her. Lol I recieved pics of so many yorkies that looked nothing like her. I still have 2 yorkies one is 12 and the other is 13, we love our babies are our children. My husband and I are retired and our babies are by our side 99% of the time. If we go on a trip they go with us, the only time they have to stay home is when either of us has a dr appt. Our daughter is a yorkie lover too, she has one. When we pass away or get to the age we physically can't take care of them our daughter is going to take them in.

My Yorkie developed cancer and I had to put him to sleep this past December 30th.The Yorkie I had prior to him lived to be over 20 years old with no health problems except for a compressed trachea that made him snore. It sounded like a person was in the room when he snored. After a little more bereavement time I will look for another Yorkie.

Hi there, here are the thinks I suggest looking for in a breeder. 1. They should ask you lots of questions about how you will care for a dog, either in writing or verbally 2. They should insist that you spay or neuter your dog after purchase 3. You should be able to see the parents 4. You should be able to see how/ where puppies are raised 5. I prefer show breeders that Are Yorkshire Terrier Association of America Breeders 6. They should not be willing to ship dogs 7. Puppies should be with their moms until 12 weeks old I hope this is helpful! Megan
