| Yorkies vs. Biewer Yorkies Can anyone tell me what the differences are between yorkies and biewer yorkies, e.g. in terms of personality? |

| Not that I know of, but I only had 1 Biewer in the past. She was exactly Yorkie-ish, full of love and fun. And Biewer tends to be bigger than Yorkie (stronger bones too). She was a devil who jumped from 2nd story to catch a bird (ouch ouch, my fault I know), countless times. Landed on pavement without even a squeak and continued her hot pursuit. The first time she did that I panicked and took her to a vet to have her x-rayed. Then have the 2nd story balcony barricaded. The little devil somehow found her way around and did her daredevil acts again . I still miss her..... sigh |

| I own both. The Biewers in our bloodline (from Darling and Fru-Fru von Friedheck) are extremely attentive to their owner's moods, and they don't have a strong prey drive at all. This means that they would rather keep you company than run and chase a ball, although they love that too. My Biewers are also more docile and less highly strung than the Yorkies. I personally prefer this over Yorkies because they are easier to handle, and they are just a joy to have around. When I'm upset, my little male will come and sit next to me and put his paw on my leg. My Yorkies are much too independent for such behaviour I love both, but I'm a Biewer breeder, so I guess I'm biased These are my Biewer babies: Solange d'Orio Biewers

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | I have been told by breeders that have bred both, that the Biewers are friendlier and a little more laid back.

| I have a now 2 yo male yorkie - he is my dream pup. Laid back and loving. He came from family that had a male & female and bred them once a year. Nice people but now that I know, not the best choice for getting your pup. My dd got a now 1 yo female biewer from a wonderful, reputable biewer breeder. She is a WILD THING! She will fetch forever, sometimes we put her in her iris pen just to give the other pups (and us) a break. She NEVER slows down. Also, the male was reliably housetrained at 6 months. Using the SAME METHODS 1 year later with the female, she still needs us to send her out and monitor when she goes and sometimes has accidents in the house still. I don't think you can generalize between the two breeds. It very much depends on the individual pup. |
