I would trust my 125 pound Cane Corso with any kid, he is just super gentle. Our Female Yorkie for some reason hates small kids. By small, I mean under 5 years old. She never had a bad experience with them either, she just does not like them. We have to really watch "HER" when she is around family kids. When we are out with both dogs, little kids come over asking to pet her. We tell them no, do not pet the little dog, pet the big one. Each case is different, each fog is different. |
So spot on. One must be careful with picking out the right yorkie. While most are very people oriented and absolutely adore children. Others may not take to them. Reasons are plentiful, temperament, breeding, or brought on by a situation with another child.....That's why breeders should always evaluate each pup to make sure they are placing it in the right home. Again the responsibility falls on the breeder.
