If you have 2 Yorkies, Do you recommend 2 girls or 1 boy & 1 girl? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

BabyFidgette · 02-18-2006, 01:59 PM

Hi,

As you know I have one female Yorkie. My cousin, whom I live with, wants to get a Yorkie too!!! Yippee!!! Anyway, I was thinking that he should get a female, but I don't know. We're afraid the male will spray all over our new house. Can you get a male not to spray? So, should Baby have a sister or a boyfriend? Any info you could give will be great. If you have two girls how is it? If you have a boy and a girl, how's that?

PS. If we got a male, Baby would be spayed anyway (going in March), so the pregnancy issue wouldn't be a problem.

I have one of each and like it. My male doesnt mark. I favor my girl though she is more the cuddler and lover. The next one I get is going to be a girl

Well in my experience I would say get a boy..... not only is it cute to see them together but it is also less fighting... two girls is always harder to control. IMO

cindy0721 · 02-18-2006, 02:04 PM

By the way I have a boy and a girl and I LOVE it!!

LIL MIS' MAGIC · 02-18-2006, 02:05 PM

I have two girls and love it...we can dress them up to be twins but yet they each have their own personality!!! We don't have to worry about the marking of boys and just get to be all girly with them...I would defintely recommend two girls!!!

I have a boy and a girl. I got Pepper (boy) in October, then I got Koko (girl) a month ago. I do find that the girl is much more loving and likes to be held a lot more then the little boy. She falls asleep in my arms and the little boy just can't keep still while I hold him. I love them both.

Is your boy less cuddly?

Thanks. I know my cousin really wants a cuddler. He loves how Baby follows me everywhere. Do you think that's the case with most/all male Yorkies?

chachi · 02-18-2006, 02:14 PM

No because I have heard most people on here that have males and females say thier male was more the cuddler. Its not that way for me at all. The only time Chachi wants to cuddle is when he is sick. Jewels could stay in your lap all day. Chachi more favors my Husband and will get in his lap sometimes

doggieluver · 02-18-2006, 02:20 PM

I have one of each as well and Sugar Bear is more of the cuddler, Taz would rather just be at my feet. IMHO I think it has alot to do with how often they are handled by the breeder. I love them both and wouldn't trade them for the world

I agree with Lil Mis Magic, HURRAY for 2 girls !!

We have 2 girls, they are biological sisters , 2 yrs apart, and they are the greatest together, no problems. no marking, and we love dressing them like twins.

Good luck in your decision !

Esme's Mommy · 02-18-2006, 03:58 PM

I have two girls and they LOVE each other! Both are cuddlers.

Gazou · 02-18-2006, 04:43 PM

I have 1 boy , 4 girls . Some others will be coming next spring .

My daughter has a female Yorkie and I have a male Yorkie. The male is more cuddly. THey both rough play to the point of me having to separate them.

Yorkielove123 · 02-18-2006, 07:48 PM

I have 2 boys & a girl. They are all 3 great & love them to death. All 3 are equal in being cuddly. It is a hard decision.
