Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Opinion Please I would like to get everybody's opinion, I just don't want anybody to get upset, just opinions, please. I had a boxer Ney, and also had a doberman Christie, they were both very intelligent, I would tie Ney's leach to my oldest son's stroller and he would pull, they even share pacifiers a few times, Christie, knew I was pregnant before I did, she would "smell me" all day, once I found out, I knew why she was doing it.But they were both big dogs and were outside most of the time, now with Max, Yorkies in general, and is when I want your opinions, out of all the dogs, aren't they the most friendly,well, not always,Max can get really cranky, they are gorgeous animals ( I hate to call them like that) extremely expressive, intelligent, loving, sweet, and I can go on and on , compared with the rest? Again, I don't anybody to get overworked, I know we love our babies, doesn't matter if they are big or small, to us our babies are perfect but IN MY CASE I've notice that Max surpasses the rest of the pest I've had. What do you think?

| I have heard a lot of people say that yorkies can sometimes be very human like. Maybe that is why you feel the way you do. Everyone at some time finds the perfect breed for them and maybe you have found that it's either a yorkie or just a small dog instead. I have had a few different breeds in my life time and I can honestly say that I loved them all but the yorkies hold a very special place in my heart. More as if they were a child to some degree!

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | that's exactly what I mean, I loved my other dogs, I also had a Cooker spaniel (Tommy Boy)and a Lab(Rocky) they still have a special place in my heart, but the way Yorkies are, sometimes I think Max knows what I'm thinking.They are special!

| I have to agree that Yorkies definitely tug at the heartstrings. I to, have had various breeds and loved them all dearly. However, I adore my Yorkies! They are my babies. Even my husband refers to them as "the kids".

Donating YT Addict | I always had big dogs, labs, boxers, St Bernards...but my Baby wow it's so different. Maybe because they are small the relationship I have with Ozzy is so much more intimate. It's weird I feel like he really loves me and needs me, not that my big dogs didn't but just in a different way. I spend way more personal time with Ozzy, him sleeping on my lap, brushing him, picking at him in general that i feel much more connected to him. I think also because the little ones can go everywhere they are more an integrated part of your life. I couldn't take my lab shopping or on the bike and sometimes he was just to big and rumbunctious to go to people's houses. Sometimes the hubby and I laugh and wonder how on earth this little dog has come along and become such a huge part of our lives. He is the light of our lives

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Yorkies are the breed for me! I have a pom who I love but I missed having a yorkie si I got a second dog 2 1/2 years ago and then added 2 more yorkies. I would have more if I could afford the vet bills.

| Yes I have owned other dogs, that I loved very much, but different. My yorkies are my babies. I feel like they know me, understand me and they ARE very much human like. My friends and family cannot get over how much my Dexter is like a baby. He curls up into me and wants to be held like a baby with his head on my shoulder. And my fletcher, he stares at me with all the love in the world in his eyes. Other people can read that expression and are amazed at how human like it is. I think they are such a GORGEOUS breed of dog also. I am an animal lover, animals of all kinds but my yorkies oohhh they just hold that special place in me!
