They may be tiny, but they’re fierce!
Though they’re only pint-sized pups, Yorkshire terriers have big personalities. According to the American Kennel Club (AKC), feistiness is practically a requirement for the breed. They’re always willing to stand up for themselves, even when they’re the smallest dog in the fight, and their spunky temperament has earned this breed the nickname “the tomboy toy.” Like other terrier dogs, they’re confident and courageous. A Yorkie won’t back down…and that’s one of the reasons we love them.
