This is a great question!! I think with proper grooming, yorkie's are not prone to the stinkys. Now, their feet are another story, they don't stink, they smell like corn chips esp after being outside. I do tend to notice Snickers can absorb the "outside" smell when he's out there for periods of time, but that goes away after about 1/2 hour after being back inside.
I also notice diet can play a roll in how your dog smells as well. THIS IS JUST MY OPINION but I think that dogs who eat good---smell good. Our neighbors have 2 Westies who eat a controversial food and they for sure have the doggy smelling house.
Some of us may not know if our house smells like dog...I remember when Snick 1st came to us and we were poty training, we would ask our family members who were honest and they said it smells like dog. Now I'm on top of it with cleaning Snickers and my house and when I ask now, I always get a good smelling home review. I am a lil OCD with cleanliness.
Snick can tend to get a lil stinky if I don't stay on top of his eye gunk and wipe his eyes regularly. Also, bully sticks can make a Yorkie's mouth area smell not so pleasant. I also use warm babywipes and wipe Snick's face, peanut, feet, and bum evey morning and before bed.
