| Are your yorkies cuddlers? Hi guys! I currently own a Cairn Terrier and am wanting to add an addition to our family I have really been eyeing yorkies for a couple of years and wanted some more information on them so I joined this forum. For my next puppy I am really looking for a snuggle buddy. All though my cairn likes to be with me he would rather sit on the far end of the couch. Are your yorkies cuddlers and very affectionate? Have you noticed a difference in boys vs. girls? And one more question, would I be able to tell if the puppy is going to be a lover when he/she's a puppy or are all puppys pretty affectionate and they kinda grow out of it or not? Thank you so much for your time! I look forward to some answers |

| Sophie is a real snuggler most of the time. She has her independent moments too, though. If we are on the couch or in bed she has to be right on our lap or snuggled up close. She is a proficient kisser, too. There is nothing like ... Yorkie Love!

| Lilah is a real snuggler,even more so now after she's been spayed. Don't know if that's a coincidence or not but she always has to be on top of me.

| Hot Rod would be in my arms 24/7 if he could, lol. I have been holding while I've been doing other things and he's put up with it all because he just wants to be held. Maggie is starting to come around to be a snuggler.

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | Missy's a cuddler on her terms. When she wants to cuddle she'll look for Rick or I. But if I want to cuddle, if she's not in the mood, she won't put up with it. She loves to give kisses all the time though. And she may not want to cuddle, but she must be close by either one of us at ALL times. LOL. Our cute little shadow... |

| Coral is a snuggle bug. When i went to pick up her sister for my parents at the breeder, they told me that she was independent and not too snuggly, but she did not leave my lap the whole time i was there. So, i brought her home for me and her sister home for my parents. She loves to be under the covers at night right next to me and loves to be held. She will also lay by herself and snuggle into a blanket if that is what she is in the mood for or if my lap is filled with another dog!

| Zeus is just starting to be a cuddler again. He was acting like a cat for awhile but now seems to want to be held more often. He can't get any closer at night if he tried. Might be the weather. Not sure and not complaining! |

| Bilbo is a cuddler. If we are home with him, he's either wanting to play or cuddle. He is also always right under my feet. I don't know if he has separation anxiety or if he's just nosy. |

| Josh loves to cuddle. When he cannot lie in my lap, he is usually lying by my feet. |

| Cuddler 100% Bella would rather be held or snuggle around my neck that being alone. In fact she'll let me carry her around as I do chores in the house rather than follow me. It's cute, and yes, I know I'm spoiling her. But she doesn't expect it all the time and just soaks it in when she can. She's 14 months old now and cuddles alot! I think most Yorkies are cuddlers from what I read on the YT. Good luck! |

| All of mine are cuddlers. Some more than others. Sebastian is a momma's boy! He will not leave my side for a second. But then again he goes everywhere with me. He was shipped to me so I didn't know his personality till he got here. Just that he was pre-spoiled! That he was! When I picked out my girls; Duchess was a squirm worm couldn't cuddle with her at all! All she wanted to do was play. She came and cuddled when she wanted and then went and layed at the other end of the sofa. Contessa was the cuddle bug. You could hold her for hours and she would just lay there. When I'm holding one of my other Yorkies she barks at me to pick her up so she can sleep in my lap. She sleeps in my lap when I'm eating, at the computer, and on the sofa! Autumn Ariel sleeps on my lap too. She also likes to be right up against my side in bed too or in the crick of my neck. So yes Yorkies are very loving! They follow you everywhere no place is personal anymore. Try going potty alone or taking a bath without hearing them scratch at the door or their little noses under the door. I leave the doors ajar so they can come in whenever they want! I'm glad I have them I'm never sad as they are always so cheery! P.S. I think my boy is more attached at the hip than any other! He cries when I step out the car to check my mail! He smiles at me (shows his teeth) when I goo goo talk to him. He follows my every move! I'm more attached to him than any other of my furbabies I've ever owned! He is my heart!!!!
