Dog Breeds - Yorkshire Terrier
on
Published in Cats & Dogs News
The long-haired "Yorkie" is known for its playful demeanor and distinctive blue and tan coat. Though a toy breed, Yorkies still retain much of their terrier ancestry in terms of personality and are generally intelligent, independent and gutsy with males, in particular, being very territorial.
Some Yorkies are unaware of their small size and may even challenge larger, tougher dogs. Because of their pugnaciousness and tendency to pounce and "hunt" they can nip and are not suitable for homes with very young children. Yorkies typically get along well with other dogs and love to play together with them.
