16 Things You Need To Know About Owning A Yorkie

#13 Can Yorkies go on long walks?

If you like taking long walks, it's fine to bring your pup along. Most Yorkies can walk much longer than 30 minutes. But if you find your dog balking or lying down, take a break and give him a drink. If needed, you can always tuck your pup under your arm as you continue on your way.

#14 Why do Yorkies bark so much?

Yorkshire terriers are notorious for barking. They are small dogs with a big attitude. Yorkies are territorial, which means they feel the need to guard their home against intruders. This innate need will often cause them to bark at the smallest noise.

#15 Are Yorkies high maintenance?

The spunky Yorkshire Terrier has a lot going for him, but his beautiful coat is high-maintenance, even if clipped short. A Yorkie with a long coat requires daily brushing and weekly baths.
