A lot of the info I read claimed that female yorkies tend to be a lot more territorial, often choosing one human as "their person" while the little boys tend to be more laid back and get along with everyone. I spoke with one breeder who even said (jokingly) that she'd have all males if she could.
Although as some of the above posters have said, I think it's more important to go and see the dogs and pick the puppy you feel you "click" with. Their personalities differ so much from dog to dog that it's hard to generalize and a bad idea to choose a yorkie based on preconceived gender-specific qualities. |
i have heard this too.. and like you said i think it just depends on the dog that is right for you, how you raise it/train it, etc.
like i said i had heard from random people that females will claim one human and stick to them.. but i think it depends on each situation.. Avery(our female) loves both me and her daddy just the same.. she has her days where she will crave the attention from one of us a little more than the other.. but this is very rare.. and for the most part would prefer both of us to be at home with her givin' her love!
