The eyes are dark with a straightforward look. The Yorkshire Terrier has regular teeth. The standard allows scissors and a level bite. The tail is docked to a medium length. Straight silky hair falls down on both sides of the body. It is possible to cut the coat to make it easier to groom the dog. The coat color is usually tan with steal blue on the back. The Yorkshire Terrier's head is small and somewhat flat on top. The dog carries the head in a confident and self-important manner. The nose is black. Small ears are V-shaped and are carried erect. The dog's face is glowing with intelligence and alertness.

Yorkshire Terriers Pictures - Yorkshire Terriers are characterized by lively behavior, friendliness and intelligence. Like most Terriers, Yorkies enjoy moving around, playing and running. Nevertheless, individual dogs tend to be capricious if not trained properly. Special attention should be paid to obedience training since Yorkies are second to none in barking.

They do perfectly well in an apartment, a house, or a farm. Placing Yorkshire Terriers outside is possible (they are not afraid of getting cold), but not recommended. Yorkshire Terriers have not changed much over the time. The first breed standard appeared in 1898. The breed has acquired many adherents due to its beauty and personality traits.

Yorkshire Terriers Puppies - Yorkshire Terriers are wonderful dogs to consider. They make affectionate pets but are usually rather careful with strangers. These people-oriented dogs are great for large cities. They do not need too much exercise and will always let the owner sleep a few additional hours in the morning. Several short walks a day will be enough to keep the dog fit.

Yorkies do not eat much. Plain food with a sufficient amount of vitamins and microelements is preferable. Yorkshire Terriers can experience digestion problems. That is why they need a thoroughly planned diet. It will also help to keep the coat brilliant.

Yorkshire Terriers - Yorkshire Terriers are Toy Dogs weighing no more than 7 pounds and standing at the shoulder no higher than 6-7 inches. Their long straight silky hair is tan with steal blue at the roots. The skull is flat with a moderately long muzzle and V-shaped erect ears. Eyes and the edge of eyelids are black, as well as the nose. The docked tail should neither curve over the back, nor be drawn between the legs.

Yorkshire Terriers Dogs - Yorkshire Terrier Dogs appeared around 100 years ago or so, and they are believed to have been introduced in Yorkshire County by Scottish weavers, who kept them as rat-catcher dogs, which guarded fabric and fiber against rats and other rodents. This breed has lots of Terrier genes in its makeup, which contains the Maltese Terrier, the Paisley, Skye, Manchester, and the Dandie Dinmont terriers.

Earlier, Yorkshire Terriers were known as Scotch Terriers, and it was in 1886 that the Kennel Club registered them as Yorkshire Terriers. Shortly after that the dog was shipped to the USA. Old-time Yorkshire Terriers were much bigger than their modern descendants, and they had shorter coat, but breeders were determined to develop a smaller species through selective breeding, and that is what they eventually did.
