Yorkshire Terrier
Appearance
Yorkshire Terriers are a long-haired breed with no undercoat, which means
that they do not shed. This makes Yorkies one of the best breeds for allergy
sufferers. Additionally, since Yorkies carry less dander on their coat, they
generally do not have the unpleasant "wet dog" odor when wet. Yorkie puppies
are born with a silky-soft black and tan coat and normally have black hairs
mixed in with the tan until they are matured.
Temperament
Though a toy breed, the Yorkie still retains much of its terrier ancestry in terms
of personality. The vast majority seem to have a confident, vigorous and self-
important personality. Individual dogs sometimes differ, but they are generally
intelligent, independent and gutsy.
Yorkshire Terriers are quick to determine where they fit in a household's "pack."
Their behavior towards outsiders will vary, some Yorkies are outgoing and
friendly towards new people while others are withdrawn and aloof.
History
As the name implies, the Yorkshire Terrier originated in Yorkshire County (and
the adjoining Manchester County), a rugged region in northern England.
In the mid-nineteenth century, at the peak of England’s industrial revolution,
craftsmen from Scotland came to Yorkshire in search of work and brought with
them several different varieties of small long-coated terriers, generally known
as Scottish terriers.
The Yorkshire Terrier was introduced in the United States in 1872. The first
Yorkie was registered with the American Kennel Club in 1878, making it one of
the first twenty-five breeds to be approved for registration by the AKC.
