| My Jewels used to growl at My Daughter when she went to pick her up but she hasnt did that in along time. I think yorkies can learn to be more tolerant of Children in time

| Jasmine and Murphy,the 2 yorkies, and Duffy, the Westie all love kids. My 21 year old granddaughter and her 6 month old daughter are staying with us for a while. Laura is in college and needs a little help. The dogs all adore the baby and Kyra loves them. She watches them constantly and it entertains her. She tries to grab their hair. It's really cute to watch. If she starts to cry all 3 of the dogs will come running over to see what is wrong with her. THey are all very gentle with her and around her even though they are usually rowdy. They seem to sense that they must be careful around her. When I rock the baby, Jasmine wants to get up on my lap too. I think if you have children, your Yorkie will get used to them. Just handle her like you would an older sibling when the baby is born. Give her lots of attention so she won't get jealous and introduce her slowly to the new baby when you bring it home. |

| Yorkies can like kids...you just have to make sure that you watch both the kids and the dogs. When you're not looking kids can do not so nice things. Here is a pic of my 5 yo son being attacked by Buster, and Busters daughter Luna 15weeks. It's a matter of making the interaction pleasant for the dog.

| My yorkie does exactly the same. He likes adults, he is not aggressive at all..but wherever he sees child…watch out. He hate kids He bark at them non stop and try to bite them. All our friends have little kids, and they come to us with kids, and it’s always a big deal, because my yorkie will gets creasy. So now, when couples with kids are coming, we give the yorkie to my parents. And we are afraid as well that it will be a problem with our own kids, but lets hope our yorkies will learn to accept them. |
