Why is a Yorkie your choice of dog? Hi there- I thought this would be an interesting question to ask- I apologise now if this has already come up. Yorkies are my favourite because they're what I grew up with- when my brother and I were little, our first Yorkie pup was so small, my dad brought her home in his pocket! And for the first 13 years of my life, she was part of our family and what I was familiar with. Another point is that I feel proud to have a Yorkshire Terrier as part of our family since I am born and bred in Yorkshire myself. Now I've moved out and in with my boyfriend, we couldn't resist getting a Yorkie and luckily found one at the RSCPA and rescued him (Casper)- he'd only been in the kennels for two hours and he was shivering like crazy and looked so helpless and 3 days later he was rehomed- my partner also grew up with three yorkies so it's great we share an interest in the Yorkshire Terrier breed. I look forward to your answers which I'm sure will be an interesting read- I must admit when I searched the net months ago for Yorkies to see such a fan-base- Yorkies certainly seem to get around a bit! :) Vikkie and Casper x |
Why do i love these little guys, cause they are just sooooooooo lovely, they are a great house dog, they keep their coat all year, which is great as i suffer from asthma, they dont bother me at all.....and their just want to sit on your knee all the time for attention....it is great......oh and you can put their hair in a bow....awhhhhh |
What's not to like? Because they just don't come any cuter. I love the attitude. I love littel dogs. They are so unique with thier coats that change so srastically as they age and although they are all the same, they are all so different, unlike the cookie cutter dogs in most other breeds. |
They are the sweetest!! They are to me like having a dog, a cat, and a ferret all wrapped up in one personality! Ya never know what your gonna get, they play like a cat,pounce like a ferret,and bark like dogs, and just the cutest things I've ever seen! :animal36 |
Yorkies are my choice because they are just so darn cute! They play like big dogs, love like little dogs and you can dress them up and put pretties in their hair. What is there not to like about a yorkie? Oh, you can also take them places with you much easier than 100 lb dog. :D |
I was 17 just out of high school and wanted a puppy. I wanted an Afghan Hound because I loved long hair,that '60's thing, didn't have a clue how to take care of one, my parents said I could get a Yorkshire Terrier, my mom's from England, so got Karma, again the 60's thing. My dad took me to this house and they had this cute Yorkie and said it was the aunt ot the puppy. Well the puppy was huge, ears down and we took him. I shared a very tiny room with my 18 year old sister who is an animal nut, and her Sheltie and Cockatoo. Karma was a terror that first night and I wanted to take him back, but my sister said she would take care of him. He became the family dog and when I moved out a few years later I couldnn't take him away, so I goy my own little male, Zorro. I've been hooked ever since. |
Personality I had seen a Yorkie for the first time when I was a young teenager, I babysat for a family that had one as a pet. I couldn't get over the personalitly this little guy had, he was happy, friendly, but also very watchful of the kids. My family was all into big dogs so for me to get a "lapdog" was out of the question. I have been reading about and finding out anything there is to know for a lot of years. I always promised myself that after I had kids, and they were old enough to be around a small dog I would have one. This past Valentines day I got MY Bailey. Just like anything I had learned he has a wonderful personality, watchful of the family and certainly displays the unconditional love that I had heard so much about. :iheartu: Bailey :hearts33: |
I loved yorkies because they are beautiful. They have lots of personality and they don't shed. |
I love yorkies because they have so much personality!They are all so different.They are energetic,loving, bright and cuddly.I love my wee girl so much, i am considering getting another Yorkie early next year! |
Honestly, my husband is the one who picked the Yorkie. I guess I grew up with cats, and he wanted a dog, so we compromised on a small dog. He picked the Yorkshire Terriers, because he says it fits me; high energy, bold and adorable :rolleyes: |
We were looking for a small dog that traveled well and did not shed...the rest was an absolute bonus! He is smart, funny, loving, adorable, snuggly, cuddly, cute, comical...shall I go on?? I think ya'll get my drift!!! I love him!!! |
I didn't know why I liked Yorkies so much but then I remembered that my Great Aunt had one and I used to visit and play with it when I was really little. So I guess that is why I love them. I am not really a 'dog' lover (-muddy feet, slobber, yuck), but yorkies are perfect because they have all the benefits of a dog in a cat size package!! |
their poop is small |
Yorkies because My house was too neat, my neighbours too quiet, my house too quiet and I thought the Yorkie was the cutest most exquisite little dog I had ever seen. Now that I have Yorkies, my house has an excuse for being messy, don't care about my neighbours one way or another, my house certainly isn't too quiet and I no longer have friends that don't like dogs, better kind of people anyway that do. |
They are cute - they don't shed - and they are small. I have a bad back and really wanted a dog small enough to pack around, bathe, etc. My 21-pound Bichon is almost impossible form me to bathe. Don't want to go there again! Carol Jean |
