Overview
Yorkshire terriers are energetic, assertive, toy dogs with large - dog attitudes. This tiny dog with the engaging personality and
dauntless courage has endeared himself to pet lovers everywhere. His qualities as a companion are unsurpassed for he is possessed
of a intelligence,a readiness to accept training and the fearlessness and tenacity of a dog many times his size,making him the most
obvious choice for pet lovers in this era of condensed living space. Yorkies do well with gentle children as long as they are treated
with respect (I do not recommend teacup size for children.)

Appearance
The most outstanding feature of the Yorkshire Terrier, distinguishing him from other small breeds,is his long silken textured coat.
Color is blue and tan. This can vary in shades of blue to slate and tan to a beautiful red gold. No two dogs look exactly alike.
The long hair on the head is tied up in a bows. This glorious adornment,together with his proud carriage, has made him the favorite
of film stars and other personalities in the public eye, all over the world . It should be remembered, however ,that this lustrous coat
can and will look its best with constant grooming and attention from the owner.
The pet owner who has neither the time nor the inclination to maintain the show coat would be well advised to trim and manageable
length, as the Yorkie looks better and feels happier with a short carefree clip than a long uncared for coat .The Yorkie's appetite for
long tireless walks, equaled by the alternative ability to exercise himself in a somewhat reduced space,makes him ideally suited to
anywhere from urban to country living. A Yorkie will happily adapt to all life styles
