in 1861 when yorkies were first shown they were called the scotch terrier then in 1886 they were called the yorkshire terrier. the breeds of dog that are thought to make up the yorkie were larger sized breeds than the yorkie we see today but they did then breed with smaller breeds and over the years both sizes pop up.
