The detail
Bred in northern England to catch rats in mills and mines, the Yorkie is now a toy companion that still has a terrier's nerve. Bold, affectionate and portable, it sheds very little but needs grooming and careful handling.
What to weigh
Yorkies bark, can be hard to house-train and are fragile around small children. Dental disease is very common, and the coat needs daily brushing unless clipped short.
