I wonder how many other Yorkies act like mine.

Rocky is very independent. He has his times during the day when he will go hang out under my bed and nap. He sleeps with me most of the times at night, but sometimes will jump off the bed and go to his little bed next to mine.

1.He does not run around in the park like a wild animal, he has his own pace, we do play fetch but only if he is in the mood and after he poops.

2.He does not like other dogs, only once he like a small yorkie his size, 5 lbs.

3.He is not hyper at all. He loves to play and run around the house which he loves in the morning mostly, then the rest of the day is tame. He goes crazy when I come home or parents and gives kisses for half an hour.

4. He does bark at strangers outside the door, or when my mother will come in to take something out of the room.


My main issue, and its not a big one, he doesnt run around outside like a normal dog, when we went hiking last year he was trailing behind me and it wasnt the best. By X girlfriends Yorkie thats 12 lbs on the other hand was all over and loved the hike. On the other hand I like the fact that he is not a dasher and will follow me in the park and walk around himself without running away without a leash.


Anyone have a Yorkie that is on a tame side? I love him dearly and he is a perfect dog otherwise!!!
Both of mine are exactly how you described yours....very tame. They always stay with us when they are off leash. They go at their own pace. In fact Jewels is so tame that she can fit under our gate and get out of our front yard any time she wants to. The only time she does it though is when me or my husband are outside the gate. Any other time she stays in the yard
