Breed History
Also known as the Yorkie, this beloved breed originated in England in 1861 and was initially called the Broken Haired Scotch Terrier. By 1874, it had been officially renamed Yorkshire Terrier. Originally bred for hunting, these small yet fearless dogs helped eliminate vermin in fields and farms. Over time, they transitioned from hardworking hunters to cherished companions, becoming one of the most popular toy breeds worldwide.
-
Personality and Temperament
Playful, affectionate, and fiercely loyal, this breed thrives on human companionship. Yorkies love being the center of attention and quickly form strong bonds with their owners. Their adaptability makes them well-suited for both families and individuals, and they get along well with children and other pets. Whether in a small apartment or a spacious home, they adjust easily to different living environments, making them a top choice for pet lovers.
-
Appearance and Grooming
A distinctive silky, smooth coat gives these dogs their signature look. Regular brushing enhances their glossy fur while preventing tangles. A warm bath every two weeks keeps them clean and healthy. Since their nails grow quickly, routine trimming is essential for comfort and mobility. While grooming needs are moderate, consistent maintenance ensures a happy and stylish pup.
-
Care and Feeding
Yorkie puppies have high energy levels and need proper nutrition to support their growth. During the first year, four small meals per day help distribute energy effectively. As they mature, a well-balanced diet with high-quality food keeps them healthy. Because they are prone to dental issues, offering dry kibble or chew-friendly treats helps maintain strong teeth.
