How to Train your Yorkshire terrier

Training Your Yorkshire Terrier

The "Yorkie" is a tiny, highly glamorous dog with a surprisingly brave, feisty terrier personality. They are fiercely loyal and highly intelligent.

Key Training Tips:

• Avoid "Small Dog Syndrome": Do not let them get away with growling or snapping just because they are tiny. Treat them like big dogs and demand respect.
• House-Training: They are notoriously stubborn about potty training, especially in cold or wet weather. Use indoor puppy pads if necessary.
• Barking Control: They are excellent watchdogs but tend to become overly vocal. Teach the "quiet" command early and consistently.

They are highly affectionate, brave little companions that excel in trick training when motivated positively.
