Wheatens are hunters partial to rabbits. A dog's eyesight is not that great and easily will mistake a yorkie for a rabbit. Wheaten's have a very high prey drive. Unfortunately the Yorkie would be the prey. |
Thank you Lorraine for that excellent information! I have never considered a Wheaten just because I love my Yorkies and focus strictly on that breed, but you can NEVER have enough accurate information "stored in core", and I may be in a position to recall and share this valuable information with someone else one day! Thanks!
