I wanted to write this to anyone who is considering a yorkshire terrier. They are great companions and very sweet and friendly to the people they trust. Sometimes they get scared and can be mean around crowds because they dont know those people and some people just think their cute little playthings. My yorkie is extreamly confident and will try to take on the biggest dog on the block even though shes the smallest.
The one main negative about yorkies and small dogs is their pretty stubborn at being house broken. Ive had mine for 2 years now and I can take her out and shell go potty outside and when I bring her in she poops inside! I also think that shes trying to let me know whos in charge.
Overall I have found this breed very compatable. I do not have kids yet so I cannot comment on how family friendly they are with the little ones. The only thing I would say is if a kid likes to be rough with animals avoid a yorkie because they will not tolerate that.
