The Yorkshire Terrier, lovingly called a Yorkie, is the 2nd most popular dog in the United States (according to ownership registration), an honor it has held for two years in a row. Yorkie’s are a small breed of dog, although they don’t usually act like it. Because of this boldness, Yorkshire Terriers do not make suitable pets for very small children, as they tend to snap and growl.They have high self-confidence and can be very independent. They are energetic, but also need time to rest.
