Yorkshire Terrier temperament
Yorkshire terriers are pretty full of themselves. They see no disadvantage in their smallsize and will stand up to far larger animals in most situations. Yorkshire terriers can get along with any other animals you have in home.
However, a yorkshire terrier is not a good choice for families with young children. Yorkshire terriers do not stand for indignities such as having ears pulled. Yorkshire terriers are active dog and they are not the one that will lie quietly on a mat in a corner.
Yorkshire Terrier puppies
Yorkshire terrier puppies with their tiny size and surprising spunk are irresistible. Raising a puppy is a full time job. If no one is home during the day, it’s not a good idea to bring a puppy into the household.
Don’t be swayed by the yorkshire terrier puppy’s cuteness. Assess your time and tolerance level realistically. If these limits won’t accomodate a puppy yorkshire terrier, search for an adult dog instead.
