You mention that Yorkies don't need a lot of excerise. Does this apply to all Yorkies~? Mine needs a lot of excerise. He loves to walk and we have walked as long as 3.5 hours. There are times he doesn't want to walk, but to play ball. Do some Yorkies require more excerise than others~? Just curious.
Thanks all  |
While trying to choose a breed to buy, I read lots of information on the different breeds, and Yorkies are considered to be one of the breeds that need the least exercise. For example, some breeds need to be walked for hours every day or they become nervous and destructive. Yorkies, on the other hand, don't need that much exercise, but they can gradually build up the stamina to go on very long walks, like you have discovered. So yorkies are good for people who can't go on hour long walks every day, but all dogs benefit from exercise, and puppies especially have lots of energy. If a dog is acting up, a good walk generally calms him down, but for a Yorkie, a 15 minute walk can be enough!
