Books? BOOKS? We don't need no stinkin' books! We just ask each other.

I'm kidding. That's actually a good idea. I've heard YTers discuss books from time to time, and I've bought a few without finding one that I'd consider to be a definitive source for my pet-quality Yorkies. But it would be nice to have a list of references together. Maybe this is the place to do it.

In general, Yorkies are big dogs trapped in little dogs' bodies. They are energetic, intelligent and curious, yet loving and loyal. They can be any kind of dog you want them to be as long as they're loved. My (almost) 3-year-old is currently in his third agility class. He'll never be the fastest in the class, but he understands the sport as well or better than the big dogs.

Props to your boyfriend for not needing a big dog to impress his friends!
