Yorkies are 'supposed' to be 7lbs or less. That would mean almost all yorkies should hardly step foot outside if that's the case lol! And that would be sooo sad. I know so many little yorkies who love their outside time, running around the yard, just like any other dog. |

One of the reasons I love terriers, they keep their youthful energy all of their lives.
Dogs most definitely need sunshine, just like we do. The outdoors stimulates all of their senses and thus, their brains.
