Buying a Yorkshire Terrier

Buying a Yorkshire Terrier is a big decision, and it is important to feel confident throughout the entire process. On Get a Pet, you can compare current listings from both breeders and private sellers, see price, age, and location, and contact sellers directly. All listings show essential information about the dog, so you can easily decide whether it fits your lifestyle and circumstances.

Are Yorkshire Terriers good family dogs or are they too fragile for kids?

They can be wonderful family companions, but their tiny size makes them vulnerable to rough handling. They are usually better suited to homes with older, dog‑savvy children who can respect their space. Proper supervision and teaching kids how to handle a small dog are essential.

Do Yorkies bark a lot and can you train them to be quieter?

They are naturally alert and vocal, which can turn into a lot of barking if not managed early. Consistent training, rewarding quiet behavior, and giving them enough mental stimulation are key. Many owners also find that teaching a clear “quiet” cue helps keep noise under control.

How much grooming does a Yorkshire Terrier really need?

Their fine, hairlike coat tangles easily and needs daily brushing if kept long. Many pet owners choose a shorter “puppy cut” that still needs brushing several times a week and regular professional grooming every 4 to 8 weeks. Ear cleaning and dental care are especially important for this breed.

Are Yorkies hypoallergenic and good for people with allergies?

They shed very little and have a hair texture closer to human hair, which often makes them easier on allergy sufferers. However, no dog is completely hypoallergenic, since dander and saliva still carry allergens. Spending time with the breed before adopting is the best way to test your reaction.

How much exercise does a Yorkshire Terrier need if they are so small?

They are energetic and curious, so they need more than just being carried or pottering around the house. Two or three short walks plus some indoor play or training sessions each day usually meet their needs. Avoid overdoing high‑impact activity, especially when they are very young or have fragile joints.

Are Yorkies prone to specific health problems I should know about?

They are more likely than many breeds to develop dental disease, luxating patellas, tracheal collapse, and certain liver issues such as portosystemic shunts. Low blood sugar can be a concern in very small or young individuals. Regular vet checks, good dental care, and keeping them at a healthy weight are especially important.

Can Yorkshire Terriers live happily in an apartment?

They adapt very well to small spaces as long as their exercise and social needs are met. Moderate daily activity and plenty of interaction usually keep them content. Barking can be a problem in close quarters, so early training is important for apartment living.

Do Yorkies get along with other dogs and larger pets?

They often think they are much bigger than they are and can be bold with large dogs. With careful introductions and supervision they can live peacefully with other pets, but their small size puts them at risk of accidental injury. Early socialization helps them learn good manners around other animals.

Is a Yorkshire Terrier a good choice for first‑time dog owners?

Their size and affectionate nature appeal to many beginners, but they do require consistent training, regular grooming, and close attention to health. First‑time owners who are prepared to invest time in socialization, house training, and daily coat care often do well with the breed. Those wanting a very low‑maintenance dog may find them challenging.

Why are some Yorkies extremely tiny and are “teacup” Yorkies safe to buy?

Very tiny individuals are usually bred to be undersized and are at higher risk for health problems like fragile bones, low blood sugar, and organ issues. Responsible breeders aim for the standard size range rather than “teacup” marketing. Choosing a well‑bred, healthy small dog is safer than seeking the very smallest possible puppy.
