I posted a quote, and instead of attacking the argument, you attacked the site as if it were not credible. In critical thinking we call this the ad hominem fallacy. As if you can simply support your position by saying that the source of my argument is not sound.

As I said, it is well known that what I'm saying about their behavior is true. It sounds like you are in denial to me.

Here is a video with a cute breakdown of the Yorkie.
Dogs 101 Yorkshire Terrier - YouTube
This conversation is going downhill quickly. Although Yorkshire Terriers were originally bred to be ratters, they are not being bred to be "killers" any more, and they were never bred to attack humans or other dogs. Rather, they are now being bred for appearance and obedience. Although my Bella is only one data point, my experience with her is more similar to Lovetodream88's experience. I say this only to point out that the behavior of the OP's dog is on the extreme side, and there is hope to correct the bad behavior.
