| Personalities of males vs. females Hi - I'm just wondering if there are common differences between male and female yorkies in terms of personality? |

| My female is more dependent and a baby. My male is more independent and happy go lucky personality. My female is more the follower where my male is tha alpha. My female is not as easy to train as the male.

| Maximus is a LOVER!!!!...lol, he loves to cuddle and snuggle but at the same time he wants to play, play, play!!! He is very friendly to EVERYONE...he will smother you in kisses but he is also very smart...I swear sometimes he cocks his head like he is listening and nodding along with me. He potty trained QUICKLY!!!!, he learned his commands quickly but he is also VERY stubborn!!!

| Coco is extremely playful and she's definetely a lover. She'll milk the relationship for all it's worth. Everyone that comes over, she tries to impress by doing ALLLL the tricks she knows, especially when they have something in their hand, like say, a TREAT. She licks and licks until you feel like Magda from There's Something About Mary, the wrinkly old lady. She is not at all stubborn, had her potty trained by almost 4 months old. She loves to cuddle and curl up under my chin at night. She is independent during play time but very dependent otherwise. She has no aggressive/possessive bone in her and she has no bark..hehe I LOVE HER

| Charlie was easier to potty train. His sister (my mom's friends got her) still is having problems with potty training and they are 13months old. She also pees all over when she gets scared or excited. Charlie NEVER had that problem. She is very timid, and charlie is really outgoing, but laid back. He likes to cuddle more than she does. Hope this helps

| Interesting. I was thinking that the fact that Joey barks, is not fully potty trained, and doesn't really like to snuggle are male attributes. But, I see that some of the males on here like to snuggle more than the females...I guess it really does come down to the fact that each dog has its own personality...doesn't really seem to depend whether its a male or a female. |

| Rex has the energy of a tiger, but if you let him play for 2-3 rough plaay hours, he poops out and sleeps like a baby. he is rough when he has alot of energy but he loves to cuddle. he sometimes nips at people but is a true lover |

| My female is real snuggly. She would stay on your lap all day if you let her.

| I've had both female & male dogs (never a female yorkie though) and tend to find females more independant and definitely not as 'loving' as males. Bailey is definitely a 'by your heels' kinda guy, he follows me everywhere. He just wants to be next to his mama. But with my female dogs in the past, none of them have been that loving. Always content to do their own thing and not want to stay near me like Bailey does. |
