There is no single body part or feature that can tell you what a dog is trying to say. We always have to look at the entire picture, the collective posture, body parts, and expression in the context in which they are being shown.

Not all body movements may mean something, however. For example, a toy Yorkie may scratch because something is itchy, or as part of a displacement behavior. So it is important not to immediately assign meaning to something that toy Yorkies breed do and look at other things going on. Different dogs and different breeds, generally, will also express themselves in different ways, so we must study each dog’s communication patterns individually.

Eyes. Just as with humans, the eyes say a lot about what a dog is feeling emotionally, so we need to pay a lot of attention to what the eyes are saying. Direct, prolonged eye contact with a hard, cold stare is usually part of an offensive threat.

Conversely, dogs – even toy Yorkies breed – that look away to avoid eye contact may be indicating fear or submission, or may be trying to avoid confrontation. An extremely fearful dog will often turn away from something troubling, but will have a need to watch for danger by looking to the side or upward, giving what is called the ‘whale eye’, where the whites of the eyes are more visible.

Anxious toy Yorkies breed will be constantly scanning the surroundings, their eyes quickly darting in different directions.

Ears. Ears are used for both hearing and communication so they can be difficult to read. Sudden noises in the environment may quickly change the ears’ position, causing a break in the communication. Generally, ears straining forward reflect a more confident or offensive state.

Mouth. Like the eyes, one of the most telling signals given by a dog may be seen around he mouth and muzzle area of his face. A normally relaxed, calm, and happy dog will usually have an open mouth, his tongue slightly forward, and will be panting.

Tail. Contrary to what a lot of people think, a wagging tail doesn’t necessarily indicate that a dog is friendly. It merely says that the dog is aroused or excited. A wagging tail can mean that the dog is experiencing happiness, anxiety, anger, hunger, or maybe even romance.

Posture. A dog’s posture will give you the overall picture of his state of mind. A relaxed dog will show throughout the entire body. His muscles will appear soft, fluid, and movements will be calm and graceful. When aroused, his entire body will look tense and hard; and the gait will be more rigid.

Yorkies are highly energetic, intelligent dogs. Left unchecked, these characteristics could lead the Yorkie charging down the wrong behavioral path. Properly channeled, these same traits can help produce a well-mannered, enthusiastic, reliable companion.

When he is quite young, a dog learns his first lessons on manners from his mother. The mother is the undisputed leader and maintains her position by swift discipline whenever a puppy gets out of line. Imagine a Yorkie mother that admonishes her young by using a progression of techniques, starting with low, guttural growls, then – if needed – a swat of the paw, and a quick shake of the offender’s neck. This is true of many dogs and about Yorkies’ primal instincts, when aroused.

Rarely is any further action required. The mother reacts fairly, unemotionally, and consistently, and the puppies respect her authority. She is the boss – the ‘alpha figure’. (Again, this fact isn’t solely  about Yorkies – this about all canines for you to have better understanding of who they really are as dogs – like any other breed.)

This pattern of discipline traces back to earliest times when dogs roamed in packs. From the pack, one leader emerged; all other pack members then assumed various ranks behind the leader. The leader’s authority would occasionally be challenged by the underlings, many of whom competed for independence and power.

Even today, every Yorkie (and other dogs) assumes it is ‘top dog’ until proven otherwise. A leader must clearly show any upstart by swift reprimand that its place is not at the head of the pack. Once all pack members submit to the leader’s authority, they follow and cooperate fully.

This heritage of pack behavior is still significant today and must be dealt with in your Yorkie’s training. You must take over the leadership position vacated by the puppy’s mother by becoming the new alpha figure.

Your Yorkie must also be taught to be respectful of all humans, not only the alpha. While this might sound harsh, it really isn’t. The owner must simply  learn to discipline the dog in a manner it understands and respects. Screaming, brutalizing, whining or pleading will not make your Yorkie feel compelled to respond – a worthy leader does not act that way.

A leader corrects every misdeed immediately, firmly, fairly, and consistently. Letting some misdeeds go uncorrected will undermine a leader’s authority.

About Hyperactive Yorkies: Is It Normal of Them To Be That Way?

Many overly active dogs (not just Yorkies) are that way because they have had no training. Simply because they don’t know what is expected from them, they are nervous and quite unsure what to do.

If you are reading about Yorkies’ behavior, you will discover that they are generally sweet little dogs. However, hyperactivity cannot be avoided in dogs, in general – unless you do something about it. A lot have inherited hyperactivity and can’t seem to keep still a second; while many others have caught the ‘hyper’ syndrome of their environment.

More on reading about Yorkies’ alleged hyperactivity: These dogs require exercise and basically, it doesn’t depend entirely upon the Yorkie’s size. Some of them have a high activity drive and may need more exercise than others. If not properly exercised, Yorkies may get into the habit of pacing. A full-grown Yorkie dog in good health needs regular walks to keep fit. Even the smallest ones should have a good run in the open air once a day or so – or if not a good run, at least a walk outdoors would work.

A Yorkie who acquires his nervousness through contact with erratic owners can be cured only when you yourself calm down and treat him quietly and consistently. Again, this means teaching the dog in order to give him a set of rules. Let your Yorkie know what is expected of him and how to behave in new situations. If you can’t calm down, you will simply have to accept your pet as a reflection yourself and put up with his behavior.

Inherently hyperactive dogs take to sustained pacing back nd forth or weaving around rapidly to help satisfy their high activity drives. In addition, these high-strung dogs are always subject to overexcitement which can cause convulsions and epileptic fits. These dogs need to expend some of their energies through increased exercise.

With this kind of dog, extremely firm and vigilant basic obedience training and elimination of any bad habits are important. You have to force them to stay calm. Dogs, like Yorkies, need to check out a new place before relaxing but shouldn’t be allowed to run madly around. If your Yorkie does this he should be reprimanded. Make him sit for a moment so he can get a complete overview of new surroundings and thus feel secure enough to act calmly. Jumping madly around should be stopped by calm reassurance.

Why Do Some Minature Yorkie Puppies Bark Too Much?

If you have miniature Yorkie puppies in your home, you have a bunch of barkers. They bark for many reasons – some of them reasonable and some of them unreasonable. It is not fair to get annoyed or angry at your miniature Yorkie puppies for occasional barking.

They have been bred to bark for good reasons, but obsessive or unnecessary barking is something you can address and, in most cases, resolve. But how do you do it? The first step is to understand why your minature Yorkie puppy is barking. Barking too much can be harmful for your minature Yorkie puppies’ health. If one (or so) barks obsessively, he puts himself under a lot of physical stress. Obsessive barking can also be a sign of a health problem or a sign that your puppy is particularly insecure or fearful, or sometimes, bored.

Barking is also harmful for you. At best, you will find yourself continually irritated with your mini Yorkie puppies that bark a whole lot. At worst, your neighbors won’t be too happy with you, and if you live in an apartment, you could be asked to leave or even be evicted if the noise becomes too bothersome. Minature Yorkie puppies bark because they may be feeling excited, or to alert you of a stranger outside the door. Dogs communicate through barking, and as the owner, you must know your dog’s language if he is in pain or otherwise.

Reasons Why Miniature Yorkie Puppies Bark:

- Someone is invading their territory (his house, yard, human, etc)

- Something resembles a threat and the think you should be alerted.

- Something resembles a prey (a squirrel, a cat, a piece of trash blowing down the street) and they want to get it.

- They want to get out wherever you are with them.

- They want your attention or wants you to return after you have left.

- They are really excited.

Are Yorkies Territorial?

The Yorkshire Terrier is a wonderfully energetic toy dog that originated in Scotland and was later brought to England. These dogs are believed to have evolved from a combination of other Terrier breeds and are popular choices for anyone seeking small, loyal and loving canine companions. These dogs are often referred to affectionately as “Yorkies” rather than by the full breed name. If you’re looking for a small dog with a feisty attitude and glamorous good looks, a Yorkie may be just the dog for you.

Personality

While these dogs are quite tiny, they don’t seem to be aware of that fact. Yorkies have true Terrier temperaments and therefore have the heart of a lion. Yorkies are very adventurous. They will chase anything that resembles a rodent and are known to be prolific climbers to the point of scaling four-foot-high chain link fences. Although they look like elegant Toy dogs, they are true Terriers in every sense of the word.

To their human companions, Yorkshire Terriers are very affectionate and devoted, and they enjoy spending many hours snuggling or playing. However, their treatment of other dogs, whether of their own breed or another, can be a little aggressive.

Are Yorkies territorial? Yorkies are highly territorial, as many Terriers can be. They will scrap to defend anything they perceive as one of their possessions. This inclination varies in strength for each individual animal, but it’s a mainstay of the breed’s temperament. This territorial nature leads to more barking than some other breeds.

While Yorkshire Terriers make wonderful pets for adults and older children, their physical delicacy does not make them ideal companions for young children who may accidentally injure their pets.

Trainability

Since Yorkies are territorial by nature, they have a strong instinct to mark their territory and tend to sprinkle around the house. Once this behavior begins, it is extremely difficult to curb. Great diligence is required for house training, and males are a little more difficult to train than females. It is a good idea to provide a spot for newspaper or Wee Wee Pads.

Yorkies are also very intelligent, and they can quickly learn to do anything they actually want to do. So, obedience training and agility training are both terrific options for owners and dogs to pursue. The sight of a Yorkie flying over a jump is truly amazing to behold.

Do Yorkshire Terriers Stink?

Have you ever wondered how to get rid of that bad odor on your Yorkie? It may not be as simple as changing the shampoo you use. Many coat, health, and even skin conditions can cause foul odor that may or may not be helped by simply bathing your pet. Many helpful queries about dogs that smell which illustrates the importance of a thorough veterinary exam to rule out possible causes for reasons your Yorkie has that unpleasant smell.

Also is to let you know what a veterinarian will check for when you bring in your pet for a check up/malodor problem.  The first question a vet will have is this “Do Yorkshire Terriers stink?” Seriously, odor problems in dogs occur in any breed and age. There are, in fact, a multitude of shampoos out there, but if it isn’t a skin or coat problem, shampoo won’t help. The first thing to consider is the obvious – did your Yorkie roll in something (decaying matter, feces) or get sprayed by a skunk? Usually either one of these scenarios is fairly easy to diagnose, and your vet can offer advice on what shampoo would be the best for either situation.

Why do dogs roll in smelly stuff, anyway? Animal behaviorists think it is a way to camouflage themselves by means of scent. By rolling in the dirt or in something that really smells unpleasant, they won’t be detected.

Do Yorkshire Terriers stink? Listed next are just a few possible smell-producing medical problems:

Breath – some diseases, like kidney failure and Diabetes, can cause a change in breath.
Diseased teeth and gums – dental disease and infected gums can produce a very foul odor.

In addition, a sore mouth may cause increased drooling. The malodorous saliva can coat the fur, furniture, etc., and you may not recognize that this is originating in the mouth.

Infected ears – bacterial infections of the ears are often extremely smelly. A vet can usually smell these ones while they are still in the waiting room. Your dog will usually be scratching or shaking the head, but not always. A bath may make ears worse if water is trapped in the ear canal.

Flatulence – is the odor on your Yorkie, or from him? Gas, or flatulence may indicate a dietary or intestinal problem. Some flatulence is normal, but if this is constantly happening, veterinary assistance can be of help for your pet.

Anal glands/sacs – this is perhaps the most common cause of doggie odor that won’t go away. Anal sacs are two small scent-sacs in the area of the anus. These are a type of ‘marking’ glands. When a dog has a bowel movement, these sacs are normally squeeze, and a very smelly, oily secretion is released with the feces.

If these sacs become infected or impacted (thicker secretion than normal, can’t empty properly), problems result. This can be a very painful situation when they become infected! If a dog (or cat) is scared or overly excited, these glands can secrete the smelly, oily substance on the surrounding fur, causing bad odor.

Digging and Yorkies: A Hard Habit to Break?

Most behaviors of dogs are either the product of instinct, or a learned behavior. Digging behavior is no exception; it is an instinct. In addition, there are certain breeds such as Terriers and which were bred specifically for their ability to dig out game, such as badgers, foxes, and otters. They have an even greater digging instinct.

Why do Yorkies dig? They dig for a variety of reasons.

Yorkies will often dig out of boredom. If you leave your Yorkie out alone in the yard for any length of time, he may dig just for something to do. Play with him out there, or provide him with chew toys, rubber toys specially made for canines with treats stuffed inside.

Digging is often used as a means of escape. Your Yorkie may want to leave a fenced yard because there are so many more interesting things to do elsewhere. If you have an intact (unspayed, or unneutered) Yorkie, he or she may be digging to escape in order to mate with another dog. If you do not plan to breed your pet, a good way to prevent digging for this reason is to neuter him or spay her.

Since deeper layers of soil tend to be cooler, your Yorkie may be digging to find relief from the heat. Always provide a cool, shady place for your dog to rest when he is outside. If you use bone or blood meal to fertilize your garden, the scent may be irresistible. A dog may dig and dig trying to find that nonexistent bone.

Any dog may dig to excavate a den. A female Yorkie may dig in order to provide a nest for babies, whether she is pregnant or not. The trick to stopping this unwanted behavior is understanding it and then turning it into a behavior of which we approve. There are obvious things you can do to prevent digging, some of which are mentioned above.

Give your Yorkie a place where he is permitted to dig and train him, with praise and treats, to dig in that spot and not in an inappropriate place. A good place is a sandy area, an area that has already been dug up and where the soil is loose, or an area where there is a lot of shade. A sandy area has the added benefit in that, sand is much easier to clean off than dirt.

Digging, although deeply ingrained, can be unlearned. Be consistent and unwavering and you will be able to find a solution.

4 Month-Old Yorkie Potty Train: What To Do?

Much of what is called ‘separation anxiety’ is really boredom, or the Yorkshire Terrier discovering the chance to engage in his favorite activities’ safely. If your dog spends every second that you’re home glued to your side, including sleeping times, and any destruction you find happens within the first twenty minutes of your absence, then it’s possible that you have a true case of Yorkshire Terrier separation anxiety.

If your pet can spend the night away from you, and is comfortable being somewhat separated from you while you’re home, you probably do not really have separation anxiety – you are more likely to be dealing with boredom or just inappropriate chewing, barking, digging, and such.

It is likely to be a Yorkshire Terrier separation anxiety if:

The dog chews on a variety of things, but chewing is often focused on items that smell most like you (or a particular person in your house) such as recently discarded clothes, including underwear or socks, or favorite chairs; and /or escape routes (doors or windows). The dog only chews these items when you’re gone

- The dog tries to stay close to the things that smell most of you (chewed stuff will still be warm when you get home)

- The dog pees or poops inappropriately, sometimes in many locations.

- The dog barks continuously during the day, perhaps after a build-up of whining. The barking is not on-off-on-off.

- The dog always shows these behaviors when left alone, even for short periods (30 minutes or less).

- The dog is wild to greet you, and is still stressed, anxious and clingy when you first arrive home. The dog does not appear ‘guilty’ over destroyed items.

- Destruction begins soon after you leave; or possibly again shortly before you come home.

- The dog cannot be isolated from you at any time, even in a different room with the door closed.

- The dog sleeps with you. (This does not mean that all dogs who sleep with their owners will get separation anxiety. It does mean that dogs that survive being apart from you at night can survive it during the day, too).

- Sometimes, the dog can be left alone in a car (for any length of time) or other unusual location, without showing anxiety or destructiveness.

- Sometimes the dog can be left with anyone; sometimes it is one particular person whose absence triggers the anxiety or issues; dog gets increasingly distressed as you prepare to leave, or the dog is constantly following you and demanding your attention when you are home.

Yorkie puppy clothes can help you achieve any of the cutest look you want for your yorkie puppy. You may also want to so something very basic or go fancy.

As the owner of a Yorkie Terrier puppy, you should realize that these cute little dogs tend to feel the cold the most than most other breeds in winer time. The same goes in the summer months for them if you have the air conditioning on a high temperature – they could get a chill. This is on account of the breed’s very fine hair and it does not exactly help regulate their body temperature.

So, to help your yorkie puppy get through the cold on both seasons, jackets and sweaters are always used to help them stay warm at all times. Both clothing come in different designs and colors, too. You will be able to pick a few clothes of different fabrics for your puppy that would suit them best – even in your favorite color.

There is not much problem in sizes when it comes to Yorkie puppy clothing which is good. Since the sizes vary from three to seven pounds, many of them are universal. But still, assuming won’t help you if this is the case. Yorkie clothes use velcro to hold them in place which makes adjusting clothes easier for you and your pet.

Moreover, this also gives you the opportunity to adjust the clothes’ size as your Yorkie puppy grows. Many pet stores sell Yorkie clothes. The selection, however, can be quite limited as there are specific outfits that come out by season. Besides pet stores, you can also check out more varied clothing for your Yorkie pup – and the Internet is a perfect medium for all that. Plenty of websites that cater to different yet stylish clothes for toy breed dogs – and you can choose the right ones for your Yorkie puppy.

Custom-made clothes and even cute little costumes come with neat designs and sizes for owners to choose from. In fact many Yorkie owners would buy different ones to dress up their beloved pets. Just make sure the ones you want for your puppy are durable, of excellent quality, and can make them pretty much comfortable.

Conformation shows will often have a showcase of past winners that parade through the ring, once again strutting their stuff. Some shows offer senior conformation classes.

Many yorkies continue to earn points and titles well into their teens. Also, many senior yorkie dogs are very excited about being fussed over, strutting like the youngsters in the next ring. Senior show yorkie dogs need never retire unless they begin to show disinterest or have a debilitating dysfunction.

Agility also caters to senior yorkie dogs with special competitions. Jumps and obstacles require less athletic ability, but still pose challenge for your dog. You can set up your own agility course in your backyard using boards.

A walk in the woods can prove just as stimulating as an agility course. You can place your senior yorkie on a sit/ stay command in a heavily treed area and go a short distance away. Call him to come. He’ll have to weave through the trees to come to you.

Another activity that offers lots of stimulation and is not overly stressful is tracking. While many of the dog’s senses such as sight and hearing degenerate with age, their sense of smell usually remains very strong. Tracking offers the stimulation of discovery as well as the thrill of performing.

Teaching a senior dog to track is one of the easiest things to teach because you are working with their natural predatory instincts. This activity can be started in your home by teaching the senior yorkie to find a treat.

Another job in which senior dogs excel is media or production work. Your senior yorkie could be an animal actor! Older dogs tend to have character – something that is greatly needed when doing a commercial or advertisement.

Many dogs that can no longer perform in the obedience ring can still do well in front of a camera. An animal actor must be photogenic. This means that his eyes should be expressive, and his body in good condition.

Until your yorkie is geriatric, he can remain in peak condition – shiny coat, teeth, and at the proper weight. Besides being in good health, animal actors must be able to perform at least the basic commands and respond quickly to both visual and verbal cues from a distance with any type of distraction.

This requires extensive training. If your senior yorkie is already an accomplished obedience trial dog, he’ll fit right in as an animal actor.

Your yorkie’s appearance has nothing to do with the competition, but he must be purebred if competing at an AKC-sanctioned show. However, if you have a mixed breed, the United Kennel Club allows you to compete at trials.

Competitors can also be neutered or spayed. In fact, a neutered dog tends to give a better performance because there are fewer odiferous distractions.

As in conformation classes, your yorkie must be at least six months old. You will find that most of the dogs in this competition are up to a year and a half, for it normally takes at least that long for their dogs to outgrow their puppy pranks.

You begin at the novice level. The title is called Companion Dog, or CD. In this class, your yorkie must be able to heel both on and off leash, walk round two people in a figure eight pattern, stand and stay, come off-lead, finish (go around you and place himself into heel position on one command).

He should remain in a one-minute sit-stay and three-minute down-stay with dogs on either side of him while you remain 30 feet away.

The next level is open, the Companion Dog Excellent title, or CDX. In this level, everything is done off leash. The judge runs you through a heeling pattern that includes at least two stops, right and left turns, and several about turns.

Then you must perform an off-lead figure eight around two people, a drop-on-recall, in which you call your yorkie from 30 feet away. Make him lie down when the judge signals you to do so, and then finish the recall with your dog coming to sit it front of you.

There are two retrieving exercises in the open class. One plain retrieve, where you tell your yorkie to stay, throw a dumbbell, send your dog to retrieve it, and have him return to a sit in front of you.

This is also done with your yorkie going over a jump both on the way to retrieve the dumbbell and on the way back to you.

Each exercise is topped off with finish. Next exercise is for your yorkie to jump over a broad jump without touching it. The jump consists of boards lying only a few inches from the ground.

The final exercises are for your yorkie to remain in a sit-stay for three minutes and a down-stay for five minutes – lined up with other dogs and you out of sight.

There are more fun things you and your yorkie dog can do together than there is time to do then –walking in the woods, camping, fishing, and even horseback riding. (more…)

Considering a yorkshire terrier for a pet? Before doing so, you should see to it that you understand the temperament of yorkie puppy breeds. (more…)

Any yorkie weighing more than 7 pounds will not fall into the weight requirements for a full bred yorkie, and therefore so-called full bred yorkie breeders perpetuating “weightier” yorkies should seriously scrutinized.
Real life Yorkies can easily fit into bags, coat pockets, or book bags. Those desiring to own one should look for yorkies that at full adulthood are estimated to weigh between 3 -7 lbs. These are the weight requirements for yorkies to be considered full bred, and should be considered by anyone reasonably interested in yorkies healthy.

Did you know that some earlier breeds/mutts that can be traced as relatives to the yorkie weighed more than 6 kilograms, or over 12 pounds, and were primarily used as rat killers? As time went by, breeders went on to produce smaller varieties of dogs for the purpose of being household pets and not to kill rats.

Prior to the year 1750, a majority of the British worked in the agriculture sector. However, the Industrial Revolution ushered in many changes in the lives of these workers. They lived in small communities flourishing with coal mines, factories, and textile mills. The workers went to as far as Scotland in order to find work. As they moved about, they brought along an ancestor to the yorkie in order to catch rats and other small animals.

One of the most famous yorkie ancestors may have been Huddersfield Ben, born in 1865 -1871. Prior to his death, Huddersfield Ben was a popular stud dog and won many prizes in dog shows.
