We had 3 yorkies and each one was perfect.They loved all dogs and people too. Very friendly dogs.Very clean. Loved walking whether wet dry or snow.

Mine has tolerance!!! Sometimes I think he has more than me. I can touch him everywhere, I can remove and take his bowl when he eats, I can turn him all around... He is very friendly and patient with everyone, even children when he knows them. There are things to put off of this video because not all Yorkies are the same!

Best dog I ever had! Loving little pet.

I’ve had yorkies since I was 7, they are AMAZING and are very loving 🥰

I got my first Yorkie 5 days ago after a huge gap of 14 years without dogs as pet. He is being such a lovely and sweet animal til now. I super grateful for being his human being.

My Yorkie did very well with my grandkids. He was a good dog. We kept his hair short!

i have one and she is loving and always playing

The Yorkies I've had are NOTHING like you describe. My Yorkie and all the other animals I've had have all gotten along very well

My yorkies siblings are 2 German Shepard and 1 husky she's very loving with them and us

By far one of the best dogs. I grew up with a yorkie since I was 8 and he absolutely adored children while he was also a gentleman with other dogs. He had a strong personality and he loved everyone blindly. Unfortunately we lost him before his 14th birthday. ❤

We’ve had one for two years and are perfectly happy with her. This article is unfair.

i cant belive that she said to not get a yorkie i have one and shes perfect 💯

My little Yorkie does not bark at all! I have had her for two months and all I have heard is one small bark when someone came to the door.

Ive got TWO Yorkies and ONE mini-Aussie. They are wonderful

My Yorkie Bichon is territorial and protective when seeing or hearing potential intruders... However when I call her back to attention and investigate with her her, she is immediately calmed down.This comes down to basic dog training she responds to knowing that the alpha has taken care of the issue and there is no threat. I love my baby Roxie!

I know your trying to help people know abt the bad things about the yorkshire terrier but not all yorkies act like this.😢

This video is all wrong. My Yorkie loves other dogs, doesn’t bark all the time, loves children, potty trained easily, loves fetch and any other game with a person, nine years old with no health issues, hypoallergenic for family members who are normally allergic to pet dander, NO shedding. She love when people she knows or doesn’t know come to visit. Yorkie’s are a great dog.

Our dog fits the profile that you just given 100% and as he is aged, he has gotten even more irritable about anyone touching his food, including his who he tried to bite

The only thing I'll say is true is when our male Yorkie see someone he don't recognize in the house he tends to bark and that's a good thing if you ask me if someone break in our place I'll sure love to know and he also will bark if he's trying to rest and he hears a lot of noise

These are ALL either untrue or non-issuse! A continuous owner is the most important thing for this breed.

Ya wrong! this dogs are very friendly and kind they love children and people too. Don't give wrong statement about this cute and kind dogs.

I love when my little sweat love bug yorkie notifys me when a Stranger is around my house so I can get my 12 gauge mossburg to check it out 😍💖🥰❤️‍🔥😍💕😘🐶😘

some of the dogs in the videos werent yorkies, but more like west highland terriers

Wrong! I have a Yorkie and she loves people and all other dogs especially big dogs, she loves getting brushed. Everything that was said is completely wrong.

Our Yorkie is a star in our neighborhood. I see if she is freezing and I hug her, rub her sides and take her inside. Also, do not forget the little shoes. We prefer the rubber booties, they are light and protective from any common and dangerous stuff on the road, such as spits and thrown away garbage.

All of the "behaviour" points are untrue, and none of it is "breed specific". When talking nature vs nurture, any behavioural traits are at least 90% nurture, and not nature.

These would be issues to an intolerant owner. Very unfair on yorkies.

I am Blessed with a boy and 10 yr old Sweet little girl. The new boy is wild, but very loving, only 3 years old. A Veterinarian Murdered my very first little boy, we all Loved him too much. The Veterinarian lied to us, had no idea what he was doing, had never touched a toy breed before in his new practice. His wife posted these facts on their Facebook page without realizing it. It's been 2 years now, I still cry, miss him everyday. I adopted him from people who didn't love him. I loved him more than any human in my life, and I'm 64.

I have 2 yorkies and one is always energetic and active all day And one is protective If anyone tries to punch me He's always there for me

Ease up! This is a horrible presentation for Yorkies 🙄 and I am a staunch supporter of harsh truths. Here's a good list: Not so great for small children - Yorkie are small so there are not very robust and can get hurt pretty easily by accident, there's a laundry list of better dogs for young families, but if you have a Yorkie already, it's not like it's a Sophie's choice. Keep your dog, love you dog; just remember he's as durable as an over-ripe avocado so maybe don't send your Yorkie and a couple of 3 YOs outside for the day unsupervised. That's pretty much it. Yorkies are food motivated, so anyone who says they are hard to train/housebreak is not putting in the effort; yeah I said it, it's a YOU problem - a lot of small dogs don't like imposing weather, luckily Yorkies are small enough that a strategically placed large puppy pad close to there normal "outside" exit and a little encouragement will continue a lifelong habit of using a pad that's not going to be much trouble to clean and replace. Protip: little dog = little bladder; this is not the dog who can go 12-16 hours between bathroom breaks. As for the barking, "yappy" bs? Exactly that, bs. Do they bark? Sure, that's called being a dog - they are alert dogs, it's what they do. I'm not sure what n00b is getting a Yorkie as a "guard dog", they are a toy breed that could be beaten up by a moody toddler, but they will alert you to any and all mammals approaching what they have deemed their territory; works for me - I am far scarier when threatened then any dog on the planet, but deaf in one ear so I like the heads up. My little guy is trained to stop as soon as I say thank you to him, it's honestly depends on the dog, not the breed. If you want a silent pet, get a goldfish. Pure breeds inherently come with predictable health problems because of the points in their breed history where they were inbred to create specific breed-wide traits, a cross or a mixed has a larger gene pool to draw from and will be less likely to develop adverse health problems if that's a concern for you. Animal shelters are overflowing with homeless pups, everyone wins if this sways you to a mixed breed. Probably the ONLY real advice I would give to someone considering a Yorkie, I would give to someone considering any type of dog: If the dog is going to be alone 10-12 hours a day, don't get a dog - big or small, dogs are pack animals and as such, want to be with their pack. Training, positive reinforcement and stimulation require time from you; *this* is the part where people go wrong and then blame the poor dog. Some dogs are more independent than others, but no dog is a naturally solitary mammal - that's not found anywhere in the canine species. Some people will get irritated and defensive that I put the onus on them but *that* is a hard truth, you will get out of you dog what you put into your dog; sh!tty dog? Sh!tty owner. If you want a dog to play with and pet and cuddle and love at your convenience, a dog that will practically train itself and be completely cool with you living a full life outside your home and away from them whenever the mood strikes you? You want a cat. That's a cat. Great animal, exactly what you are looking for. Welcome to advice on Yorkies NOT written by chatGPT.

Now I getting one

Whoever made this video never owned a Yorkie.

I am at number two and I disagree with 1 and 2 so far. I have a 5-year-old that is as sweet and gentle with everyone! Not only that but before I got her, I had a 170 lb Shepherd/Akita mix and a Newfoundland/retriever mix that adored her and she adored them. I will continue with a video until I hear a couple other untruths. However, so far I don't believe this video. Big dog syndrome you mean like a Chihuahua? This is a ridiculous video! I'm done watching it.

Mine hates other dogs and children, sweet natured but barks like crazy. Although her health is robust now, she has had both knees surgically corrected, expensive dental surgery, is 12 and barely house trained. She stands on the pee pad and pees on the floor. She is sweet but I would never recommend one to anyone not prepared for expensive vet bills.

LOS YORKIES ARE BEAUTIFUL FOOL

I had one. Her name was tippy and she was really sweet. She got a long with my kids. The only person she didn’t like is my ex-husband. She hated him. If he got close to me she would try to get him. He would have to run and get on a kitchen chair. He worked nights and we lived down a long dirt road. As soon as she heard him pull on that road she would start growling in the closer he got the louder she got. He made me give her away. ☹️ He got tired of getting bit. Funny thing is, lol he got her for me. I miss her.

I have 4 and I want 4 more! Best breed in the world. The key is you have to be the bigger bully or they will bully you . Don’t get just one, you’ll have issues, they hate to be alone. Kennel train the first night you bring them home, let them earn their way in your bed. This breed goes to the groomer a lot so it’s important they’re crate/kennel trained. This breed takes time and a lot of maintenance to maintain a beautiful coat, if you don’t have time and money, don’t get one.

I have a yorkie, and I shown yorkies, and I'm a Dog Groomer, my yorkie has a sister a goldendoodle and she has been with use for 2 years she is 45 lbs, yes yorkies are not good with families with small children each yorkie is different but they are great dogs, and fun,full of energy not like a goldendoodle there totally full of energy, my yorkie and goldendoodle get along so well together, I tell people if there wanting any type of a dog do your homework so your aware of whst you maybe in for.

As said in the video my yorkie doesn’t like to go out if it’s cold or wet out, she wil go out the back door but not off the porch. I usually have yo walk out a little bit to get her to come off the porch otherwise she’ll sit on the porch instead of actually going potty

This article is false.

What a terrible title! I’m sure many Yorkie owners (like myself) will say what a joy our lives have been since the addition of our Yorkie family member(s). Maybe try calling it, “10 Things to Consider Before Buying A Yorkie”. While many of your points seem accurate, not all apply to every Yorkie. This video comes across negatively and I think they’re a joy to have and be loved by.

they’re really nice, but mine is sadly too loud and sometimes barks at everyone, but sometimes shes super nice and wants to cuddle with me. her mood changes quickly but my whole family loves her a lot, like she can literally bark and bite me and wont let me hold her and then the other day she’s extremely cuddly and wants to be with me. idk if thats the problem with me and my family or her, but yeahh. also, she’s REALLY hungry every single minute. like literally, she tries to steal my food everytime i let her in my room (sometimes she sneaks in to do so, but i always notice her) she’s 4 years old if anyones interested, so yeah

I have a tiny tiny one she is very tiny

My yorkie loves my nephews and nieces and any other random terrible video and loves any size dogs very smart dogs

You are extremely wrong;they are lovely,pets; you should not express those comments

If I were you you can listen to this if you want to but it’s not true I have a Yorkie she’s amazing she’s safe with children and sometimes lets out the terrier but still you should not be encouraging people not to get a yorkie and trust me my yorkie is the best just saying you don’t need to be encouraging people not to get an animal unless it’s like a bear bears are kind of cute though but like what if I said you should not get a golden retriever because they love to cuddle that’s kind of what you’re saying with yorkies I love Yorkies but some people don’t but I love them and a lot of people do.Trust me your keys are great dogs if you want one you should get one

I don't agree with bashing any breed of dog. This video does! Every dog is different.

Just lost my Yorkie of 15 years to kidney failure. My 💔is broken.

I love my fur baby flaws and all.

My wife and her mom had a yorkie family with 6 yorkies. My wife kept 3 yorkies and her mom kept 3. 2 of the yorkies my wife kept were funny, playful, and cute. the last one was cute and calm. I don't agree with any of that😠😠😠

What a load of BS yorkies make adorable pets' its how you bring them up just like any other breed thy have different characters..

I'm thinking of getting one. Now I'm changing my mind

My Yorkie is my best friend I had questions about getting one but now that I have him he's with me all the time he gets upset when I don't take him with me but he has got a little kennel that I put them into when I go to the store I have too many Jews and aahs when I'm going to the grocery store with him and I never get to get all my groceries he is a comical little boy he loves to fish he loves squeaky toys😊

downvoting for my dog, yorkie

Makes sense. I have seen Yorkies always barking at anything. One friends yorkie barked at the wrong dog and got stitches and attacked something in the backyard and got more stitches. Definitely not a good gaurd dog it will just get more stitches or worse.

stop it people can get them if they want to or need to let them take the yorkie so it won't be alone

3:17 since when aren’t children ppl

Do not believe this mess. NOT ACCURATE INFO😢😮

Ridiculous, dogs 🐕 are born to be in the nature and they're good even to live alone . I grown-up with dog 🐕 we keep outside ,not in house .

Nope I am raising my 2nd Yorkie they are perfect..This video was clearly made by an AI. Call me old fashion, but I would rather consult a human on these matters.

Ridiculous statements on this video.
