Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale
The Yorkshire Terrier breed also known to many as the Yorkie, said to have Scottish ancestry, was brought to England by breeders in the 19th century. It was originally bred and used to catch mice in clothing mills. Due to its energetic and brave temperament, it excelled at this task. Today, the Yorkie is one of the most popular and sought-after dog breeds in the United States. Its long silky coat which is usually blue and tan in color gives this puppy a unique physical appearance. These charming small dogs crave attention and are very affectionate towards humans; thus, making them the perfect addition to your family.
Appearance and Grooming
This toy-sized terrier show dog has a long, silky, and soft blue and tan coat that is parted on the face and from the base of the skull to the end of the tail and hangs evenly and quite straight down each side of the body. The body is neat, compact, and well proportioned. An interesting fact is that their coats become lighter in color as they age. Though shedding is minimal, their long hair requires daily brushing in an effort to prevent tangles and knots. Regular grooming every 6 to 8 weeks is also very important to keep a healthy coat and clipped nails.
Temperament
This self-assured, intelligent breed is a combination of charming looks and adventurous terrier spirit. This breed can certainly show a wide range of personalities from cuddly to perky. These dogs want nothing more than to adoringly follow their families everywhere. They have an outgoing and sometimes mischievous temperament. Early socialization and training will make for a well-rounded addition to your family. But be careful not to spoil them too much as this can encourage them to form bad behaviors.
Family and Companionship
These elegant dogs are very affectionate towards their owners and families as one would expect from a companion dog but true to their terrier heritage. They're sometimes suspicious of strangers and will bark at strange sounds and intruders. They require lots of attention and time with their family. It is best not to leave them for long hours as they will become quite anxious and yappy. Because of their small size, they will do best with older children unless supervised during playtime with younger children.
Exercise
Daily exercise will help your Yorkie release pent-up energy, maintain muscles, keep the heart healthy, and keeps the metabolism working efficiently and intensely that they are panting. A moderate walk twice a day is perfect. These dogs like routine, so ideally they should get a walk in the morning and one in the evening.
Training and Socialization
Yorkie pups respond best to repetition, praise, and plenty of positive reinforcement. They are very in tune with the trainer and the challenges of training as they are driven by mental stimulation. Early socialization is equally important as it offers the opportunity to become accustomed to people, other dogs, and traffic. It also provides this curious pup with mental stimulation by way of sight, scent, and sound, which aids in the training process.
