We no longer raise Yorkies. We will have a litter of Yorkie Maltese mixes sometimes.

The Yorkshire Terrier is small in size, but not in personality. It is ever eager for adventure and trouble. This little dog is highly energetic, brave, loyal and clever. Affectionate with its master, but sometimes suspicious of strangers. They do better with older children and adults. They are prone to early tooth decay and need yearly dental check ups and cleanings. Regular grooming is needed to keep them looking good. A clipped coat needs daily to weekly combing and brushing. Topknot is usually tied back with ribbon. Full coats need hours of grooming. This breed sheds little hair.
