About the Yorkshire Terrier

Yorkshire Terriers, or Yorkies, are a beloved toy breed known for their small size, silky coats, and big personalities. Typically weighing between 4–7 pounds, these little companions live 12–15 years and bring endless energy and affection to their families.

Yorkies are playful, bold, and loving—always ready to be your lapdog or your watchdog. Their glamorous blue and tan coat requires regular grooming, though many owners keep it trimmed short in a “puppy cut” for easy care.

Despite their size, Yorkies have a confident, big-dog spirit. They thrive in apartments or houses, enjoy daily walks, and form close bonds with their families. With proper care, training, and socialization, they make loyal companions and wonderful family pets.
