I've spoken to quite a few people about yorkie puppies. Everyone I've talked to has said that male yorkies are more affectionate, and that females can have more attitude. I was also told that females bond better with a male human and male dogs bond better with females. I'm not sure if this is true, but I decided on a male puppy after speaking with many yorkie owners.

The clothes issue is the only thing I like better about females- so many more options!! Although, there are some really cute polo shirts and sweatshirts out there for boys!

rrosenberry · 05-09-2005, 10:05 AM

When I was trying to decide whether to get a male or female.. EVERYONE.. said DONT GET A MALE.... and there #1 and only real reason was because to the Marking.... which I was SOOO afraid of ... but finally found pups but only had 2 males!!! I didnt know what to do,,,, BUt guess what I did... I took HIM home....

... and yes he did mark twice, only at other peoples houses,,(that had dogs) and then he got fixed and he has not done it since!!

So Im so glad I got him... and did not listen to everyone...
But, my neighbor had an Unneutered,,, 5 year old male,,, and he marks constantly!! SO thats one reason....

rene · 05-09-2005, 10:09 AM

good point about the marking i forgot about that lol i have a boy and a girl my little girl will not let me do anything to her hair

LOL!!!!

Lol, thats so cute!

I agree with the others, I think the idea of dressing girls up in pink appeals to lots of people. I have both a boy and a girl, they are both lots of fun, but my boy is so much more afectionate. He will lay on my lap like a baby all day long if I let him while my girl is running around the house like a party animal lol.

I agree! I just bought a couple of new shirts for Hefner and I love the one that says "Tougher than I look!" He also has "SECURITY". I do put his hair up but he looks cute that way and people know he's a bow because of his clothes!! He's a metrosexual and very in touch with his feminine side!

I thought I would want to dress my little girl more, but my daughter (the female is hers) hates pink and I have only bought her one dress so far and it is a functional harness dress. It's real cute though!

I dress Duke up all of the time, and he loves it! He has a variety of Hawaiian shirts, polo's, vests, sweaters, sweatshirts and jammies.

I think that I have more fun shopping for clothes for Duke, than I do shopping for myself!

That is not always the case....Kai does not want ANYTHING to do with Daddy 99% of the time..and EVERYTHING to do with mommy , I cannot EVER get away from her!!! (and when I do of course I miss her!!!) My parents have a male who is more attached to my dad then my mom. I think it depends on who they choose as their human , and who spents the most time with them

I choose a female B/C both of my sets of parents have males who are fixed and MARK EVERYWHERE!!

DinerosMom · 05-09-2005, 02:39 PM

Dinero was 7 mos old yesterday. How would he do with clothes now? Would he wear them do you think?

whispersmom2 · 05-09-2005, 03:26 PM

I think that years ago when males were neither trained or neutered they were problems...marking and humping. That is not the case now--I can sell my males more quickly than my females. WHY? Cause I am a sincere lover of my boys. They bond better with their moms, they are needy and they don't have PMS. LOL I do not dress up any of my dogs-but that is another issue-- so that definitely is not an issue with me. Yorkie boys cannot be beat as pets.. Given the choice between the two, da boys get my vote!!!

sfmadrigal · 05-10-2005, 12:11 AM

I'll admit it. I wanted females because I wanted to put bows in their hair and dress them up and paint their toenails. All of which I do. It had nothing to do with marking or humping.
