| My yorkie doesn't bark? Hi, I just got a Yorkie yesterday. I haven't heard him bark once and he seems very very quiet. The prior owner told me he doesn't really bark and if he does makes a sound, its like a bird chirping. He's about 5 months old, very well behave and friendly. He seems healthy and have all his shots. He doesn't seem like any other yorkie I've experience. I've never seen or heard such a quiet dog. Is there anything wrong? Not that I'm complaining, I live in a apartment building and appreciate all the sleep I can get. I'm just a bit concern if there might be anything wrong with my puppy. |

| Welcome to YT. Don't worry about your doggy, count your blessings. My Nikko is the noisiest little boy around!! He barks at everything and lately has been barking more than ever. He barks at his toys, he barks to get my attention, he barks when you leave him in another room and he wants you to come over to him. He even barks at the curtains when they move if the window is open. I remember being like you when I first brought him home at 3 months old. He was so quiet, I worried that there was something wrong with him. Oh how I miss those quiet old days!!

| I love his little face and ears. Soooo cute. I got one of my Yorkie's at 5 months too because the breeder wanted to keep her for breeding but she didn't hit the proper weight to be bred. Both of mine aren't barkers either. They both know not to bark inside but i take them for 2-3 walks a day and when their in the park and see a squirrel or bird they sometimes bark and chase them (its so cute).

| Welcome to YT! Mark my words we'll hear from you soon enough on how to STOP him from barking! My Tucker is so loud and his bark goes right through me like a knife. Enjoy the quiet while you have it.

| My first yorkie, Mickey (he's 6 years old)... didn't make a sound either when I got him... I told my husband that he was the most expensive hamster ever... Anyways... I thought all yorkies would be like him.... My Jasmine, who is 16 months old more than makes up for Mickey ... she can make you ears bleed.... it's so high pitched!!!! Consider yourself lucky. By the way, welcome to YT!

| Thanks everyone, all the great advice really put my mind at ease. This is such an awesome forum, full of a lot of helpful and positive people. I'm very glad to be a part of this community. Well now that I know Coco's "normal", I hope he doesn't turn into a noisy one. |

| Yeah, Yoshi is almost 6 months now and has barked maybe 3 times. Not barking fits 3 times, but 3 actual barks 3 times. He is a silent ninja. He is ridiculously healthy and will get into anything, but he is just as quiet as a mouse. a mouse that is carrying my socks and shoes off.
