Behavioral Traits
Despite the fact that Yorkies fall into the toy breed category, they carry many of the personality traits of regular terriers. They are generally seen as bold and independent dogs. Some Yorkies are friendly and will approach strangers, while others will withdraw and keep their distance. Behavior depends largely on how the dog is trained, but overall, Yorkies are very confident and energetic dogs.Yorkies in America
