I think the terrier yorkshire is among the finest breeds of the Canine kingdom. my little guys is so hyper and active, bursting with energy all the time. If I ever become a father, my kid is definitely having a yorkie. They are so playful
Another huge advantage of the yorkie, and small breed canine's in general is that there lifespan is significantly longer than there larger counterparts. I could not imagine having a Great Dane, dogs of this size very seldomely live to be over nine years of age.
Thats horrible don't you think? If I were burying my great dane after he passed away eight years and 9 months, I could see myself thinking "Wow, sure went by quick didn't it boy? I remember just 8 years ago when your moma gave birth to you, and 7 years ago when you were such a cute puppy"
The smaller breeds can in some instances live to see 20 (Although this is pretty rare), but the lifespan of the Yorkshire Terrier 13-16 years is alot more reasonable. And with medicine advancing the paste it is, researchers in the veterinarian and animal industries are making significant discoveries in extending the life of the Canine. |
