Although small in size has a big heart making them the ideal pet for the whole family! But for those who would like to compete in the show ring will find that the Yorky is the most glamorous of breeds!
I have bred these little imps since 1991 and is still fascinated by them. They are tenacious and when they look in the mirror they see a big lion looking back at them, this endearing them to all who meet them.
Yorkies are without a doubt one of the most appealing of all Toy Breeds. With their charm and intelligence the Yorky is in spite of their size full of courage, loyalty and affection.. They have a beautiful satin like coat, which does not shed and is always a joy to own.
Yorkies are loyal, loving and a born show-off. Their size makes them an ideal choice for country and urban living alike, and can be carried on ones arm quite easily. They are able to exercise themselves in confined areas, yet capable of hiking for miles.
If you are ever so fortunate and blessed to be owned by a Yorky you will start with 1 and end up with a few, each and everyone has their own individual look and personality.
They are good with kind loving children, cats and other friendly dogs.
Care Information
I free feed my Yorkies with Royal Canine because they like to play with their food and Ive never had a problem with obesity.The eyes are wiped clean with a damp piece of cotton wool.
I use Wam Pum disinfecting mouth spray once a week to keep their teeth tartar free and breath smelling fresh.
Ears needs to be checked and kept clean.
Nails should be clipped short but be careful not to cut too short into the fleshy part called the "quick" which if cut into will bleed and cause the dog pain.
The coat should be brushed with a soft bristle brush frequently. Start brushing the puppy early- it will soon become accustomed to it and, given a special hug, will even look forward to it.
