I've been trying to think of how to capture the essence of a Yorkie. One thing keeps coming back to me. Large dog in a small body. They are the most fru fru, prissy looking dogs and yes we dress them in clothes and put bows in their hair, but underneath all that is a real dog! My Sadie looks like is all looks and no substance but underneath that is a fiercly loyal very un-prissy dog. She is taking obedience and agility classes and she loves to track chipmunks and squirrils. They are terriers through and through and their nose definately works for something other than being cute - although they have cute down to a science! |
