Absolutely! Yorkshire Terriers, or Yorkies, may be small in size, but their personalities are anything but tiny.

They love cuddles and being close to their people. - Energetic & Playful: These little dynamos are full of energy and enjoy regular playtime. Daily exercise is a must to keep them happy. - Intelligent but Stubborn: Yorkies are quick learners, but they can be a bit headstrong. Consistent, positive training works best. - Alert & Brave: Despite their size, Yorkies are bold and confident. They make surprisingly good watchdogs, often barking to alert you of strangers. - Social but Selective: They’re generally friendly but may be reserved around unfamiliar people or pets. Early socialization helps them adapt better. Terrier Instincts Yorkies come from a line of terriers bred to hunt vermin, so they often show: - High Alertness: Always ready to react to sounds or movements. - Determination & Courage: They’ll stand their ground—even against much larger animals. 🐶 Around Others - With Children: They can be good with older, respectful kids but may be overwhelmed by rough play. - With Other Pets: Generally okay with dogs and cats, but their prey drive might kick in around smaller animals like hamsters.

Kiba is a lover. He just wants to know he's not alone. He loves to play, run in big yards, go for walks, pretend he's a 5lb chihuahua and sit on your lap, and just love on you. He's a giant goof ball who'll bring nothing but laughs, smiles, and giggles. Kiba is the absolute sweetest and smartest boy you'll ever meet. (He recognized and responded to his name the day after I got him, at 11 weeks old.) He knows how to use talking buttons and a doggy doorbells. The only downside with him is that he does have some bad anxiety and has to take medication for it. That, and, he's pretty stubborn. He understands his recall, but often ignores it. In any case, you won't regret taking him into your home.
