The Yorkshire Terrier is a happy, little dog with an a lot of self-confidence. He is alert and is interested in his surroundings and he will play with much bigger dogs.
One thing you should watch out for in this dog is being overly timid or aggressive. You need to socialize this dog well while a puppy so that either of these traits do not become a problem.
This dog is good for people with allergies as the coat does not shed.
As with all the terriers, they can be stubborn and feisty but off all the Yorkshire Terriers I’ve seen have been very friendly people loving dogs.
After all they were bred to hunt, whether it be small vermin or larger prey they were meant to chase and track down game or rid the farmer of the rats and mice that were on the farrms.
I’ve seen only one aggressive Yorkie and sweet gentle Yorkshire Terriers.
