Yorkie puppy

Almost everyone will agree Yorkies are some of the most adorable dogs. They are one of the few breeds who are actually cuter as they get older. If you want to adopt one of these bundles of energy there are a few things you need to know about Yorkie puppy care. Bundle of energy is an understatement. These babies seem to have a never ending supply of bubbly, bouncy, energy. For many people, this energy is too much for them to deal with. If you are looking for a docile lap dog, you might want to consider another breed.

Newborn Yorkie puppy care is much like care for any other type of puppy. They need attention, food, water, and lots of grooming. Yorkies have beautiful long coats that require daily attention. A thorough brushing is needed every day to prevent matting. Starting the puppy out at a very young age will help the puppy learn to tolerate this activity.

Yorkies are a member of the toy breeds and are subject to bouts with low blood sugar. Because of their high energy level their small bodies sometimes expend more energy than they take in. This can be a serious problem if not given immediate attention. A small amount of sweet water or syrup will usually be all that is needed but if your puppy does not respond you need to make a trip to the vet. This problem usually is not a threat after twelve weeks of age.

Because of their demure stature and high energy level you need to take care that your Yorkie puppy gets enough to drink. Dehydration can happen quickly and needs immediate attention. If your puppy is playing hard he will need to drink water frequently. It is extremely important for you to have a fresh supply of water available at all times.

Yorkie Puppy Care And Training

For some unknown reason Yorkies don’t realize they are little dogs. They often exhibit stubborn behavior especially when you are trying to house train them. They are one of the more difficult breeds to train and they will require a lot of patience on your part. A very young Yorkie is probably not going to learn very fast. Most people have more success when the dog is five to six months old. If you are exercising proper Yorkie puppy care you will not spank your puppy when he has an accident. Instead try scolding him in a rough voice. Most puppies want to please their master and it makes them unhappy when they know they have disappointed you. Since you are dealing with a baby you should not expect too much too soon. It is also important to note that treats should be given when your puppy goes where you want him to. This will help to reinforce his positive behavior.

You need to understand that Yorkie puppy care will sometimes try your patience. The first year of life is usually the most difficult but their temperament will get better as they mature. With patience and understanding you will find that the Yorkie is one of the most lovable dogs you can own.

    I’ve had my little 12 week old yorkie for a couple of weeks now and he has the greatest little personality. He is so adorable and loves to snuggle with his mom and dad.

  6. carolon 15 Jul 2007 at 4:06 pm

    Yorkies are adorable dogs that need a lot of attention, care and love…. However reading the above comments I fear that these people don’t realize that. Owning a Yorkie is not like having a pit bull – its not just saying óh how cute’ etc. it is sharing your time (lots of it) to assure that your new companion/pet is healthy and happy.

  7. veronicaon 28 Jul 2007 at 9:05 pm

    I love my yorkie I got him wen he was 7 weeks old he know is 12 weeks and I would def. Recommend this puppy to anyone they are adorable and fast learners

  8. maddyon 30 Jul 2007 at 3:02 pm

    I think now after reading this website, that Yorkies do require alot of patience and attention. I will be getting one on my birthday. Her name will be Truffles or Pringles. I am looking forward to the challange ahead.

  10. Marilyn Smithon 24 Aug 2007 at 4:33 pm

    My son got me a Yorkie, he bought it in Ky and I live in Florida so my daughter which lives in Ky kept it for me for about a month until I could come in an get him(my daughter has 2 kids and a Lab that would get annoyed by the playfulness) so it was confusing I’m sure to him of where his home was but the main problem I have with him he bites, he won’t clamp down but you can’t enjoy him for his teeth,he will bite the back of my arm,my sides, hands. I will play ball with him, he will bring it back but as soon as he drops it, he’s biting your hand. He was born May lst and my son picked him up on June 29th 2007. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I got my yorkie when she was 6 weeks, now she is around 16 weeks. She is def. a ton of energy but she always makes me smile. I named he Kaitlyn Bear II after a brittany spaniel my family had to sell… :( BTW, when are these dogs potty trainable? Mine is doing pretty well with a dog door but she still does the excited and scared peeing..is that normal?

  12. Jennon 02 Sep 2007 at 1:41 pm

    I have a 13 week old yorkie pup and a 3 yr. old daughter.They get along great.They both have alot of energy and can get it out with eachother.So far he is doing very well with his training but it does take a lot of time patience.He is a very smart loving dog and I would recomend that if you want a sweet smart cuddely dog, get a yorkie.

    While Yorkies do require a lot of time it can be very rewarding. I have a 8 month old Yo-Chon, I adopted at 4 months, and she is a bundle of energy & I just adopted a 4 year old female and she is calm, very loving and loves to cuddle, so don’t limit yourself to just getting a puppy. Also, don’t think you can’t have a Yorkie because someone else in your family has big dogs…my husband has 2 AmStafs and my Yorkie & Yo-Chon dominate them.

    my beautiful yorkie just had 5 puppies they are so adorable. i have 8 yorkies and i’m getting two more for christmas. i love my yorkies so much they are my life. and yes they are hard to potty train and it gets very aggravating to have to clean up pee but they are just to cute to get on to them

  35. Yorkie Momon 28 Dec 2007 at 5:27 pm

    I just got Jacob and he is precious… I love him so much. My dad and brother got him for me for Chistmas. This is the best Christmas ever.

  36. Sallyon 29 Dec 2007 at 4:45 pm

    I have a 7 month yo-chon which I got for Christmas, he is very Spirited so his name of course is “Spirit”.
    I am having trouble with house breaking him, he won’t go out on a lead, nor will he go out with anyone including me. What can I do?
    He seems very timid, he won’t come to me or anyone else. I really LOVE him and want to help him over come this. How do I get him to respond to me and come to me?
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    I just lost a puppy, the mother’s weight is 1.5 kg. the puppy is large but was delivered through c-section. Don’t know what went wrong as I left my dog for their care and visited everyday.
    First stud was Nov 5 and the second was on the 7th. I left my dog to the vet’s care on Jan 2 so they can look after her cause I’m at work and was afraid that she might labor without anybody watching, I called and visited everyday and anticipated my little puppy’s arrival. On Jan 6 I went to see her at around 2 pm. she is still eating like a horse, They even made an ultrasound and said that the puppy is still alive and the heartbeat is strong. 12 midnight they called and said that the puppy was weak and did not made it. The puppy was big around 5″. So I really don’t know what went wrong.

  38. R&Con 10 Jan 2008 at 11:30 pm

    Sounds like Parvo.. Don’t get me wrong but keeping puppies at the vet never seems to work out well. I understand you had to leave the female.. We have 5 yorkies.. yes 5.. no i’m not a freak just love them to death.. best “dog” I have ever had. I sometimes fail to say dog because they don’t act like one.. I think they are really people inside a dog’s body

  39. Delilahs mommyon 14 Jan 2008 at 6:38 pm

    My yorkie Delilah is a little bundle of joy. She is so wonderful to have around but me and my husband started potty training her on pads and we want to start taking her outside but she just wants to play. I dont know what to do.

  40. Lindseyon 27 Jan 2008 at 6:59 am

    I have a yorkie and she is so stubborn!! We’ve had her for a month and 1/2 and she’ll bark at anything. She’s a sweetheart and we love her so.

  41. Lindseyon 17 Feb 2008 at 7:08 pm

    I had a yorkie until she was 12 years old. Yorkies tend to have “big dog syndrome” They think they are big and can take anything. A Dogo Argentino came into our yard, and being protective over my mom, barked at the dog and got herself killed. It’s been three years and we are still not over it. Yorkies are such a loveable breed and are i love everthing aboutt them. We are finally ready to get another one, which she is coming in 6 days. We have a big fence around our yard now, and she will never leave my site! BE CAREFUL!!!

    I’m getting my litle 10 1/2 week old baby boy tomorrow! I’m so excited! His new name will be Dolce (Henry wasn’t working for me) and I cannot wait to have my little baby home, and my brother’s boston terrier (who lives at our house) will be so happy to have a little cousin to play with all the time. yay i can’t wait!

    I am getting my baby girl on Friday and can not wait. My husband has two pit bulls and we have a cat as well, but I’ve wanted a Yorkie for so long that we finally decided to get one. I’m so excited!!!

  46. Brandion 28 Mar 2008 at 3:05 pm

    My mom just lost a fox terrier due to old age. She had that dog for 17 years and it tore her apart when patchy ( fox terrier) passed away. 2 Months later they found a tumor in my 16 year old cat (sassy) brain, so we had to put her down. Our family was sad that we lost 2 of the closest things around us.
    One week later my friend’s Lhasa apso gave birth to Yorkie mixes. I called my mom up two weeks later and told her for mothers day Im going to get her a baby boy yorkie mix. Its the first time I really saw her happy after the two loses. So April 25 Im going to bring home Grady boy our yorkie mix. Mom cant wait to meet her baby boy 8]

  47. Corkyon 02 Apr 2008 at 3:09 am

    My new yorkie is at my house right now. He came home today with my husband as a surprise to me. Apparently his human Mommy passed away and he was being kept in a cage by family friends that were finally able to convince the daughter that he needed a new home with a new fmaily to love and care for him!
    I’ve not been able to see him yet, as I am in the next state over assisting with my Dad and a family illness of our own, but I will tomorrow!

  48. Cherylon 23 Apr 2008 at 3:45 am

    Well im glad right now cause im lucky enough to get a new born yorkie in like 5 weeks!

    I have a yorkie, he is about 1 yr now, we got him when he was little and he was sick, but as he grew and we had to give him medicine around the clock. he is now the cutest thing ever but a mess, he is pretty good in his crate but when we have him in the house he sometimes makes a lil ooops…he is getting better and better, let me tell you if you don’t have the time to take care of one…then its best you don’t get one. but i know i LLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEE mine! P.s. his name is dixon we got the idea by driving by a baseball field, you know dixie baseballs?

  53. SK-NEW.YORKIE.OWNERon 01 Jun 2008 at 9:37 pm

    I JUST BOUGHT A YORKIE THATS 4 WEEKS OLD. THE LADY I BOUGHT HER FROM SAID THAT SHE HAS TEETH BUT… WHEN SHE WAS TEETHING ON MY FINGER I DIDNT FEEL ANY TEETH, JUST THE OUTLINES OF THEM COMING IN. BUT, I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW TO CARE FOR HER, AND WHATS SOMETHINGS THAT SHE CAN EAT WITHOUT GETTING SICK. IT WOULD REALLY BREAK MY HEART IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO HER! BUT, I HAVE SOME PUPPY CHOW AND MY MOM SAYS TO PUT WATER ON IT TO MAKE IT MUSHY. IS THAT GOOD ENOUGH? CAN ANYBODY PLEASE REPLY AS TO WHAT U THINK I SHOULD DO… THANX!

  54. BrittanyandSquirton 08 Jun 2008 at 4:46 am

    to SK-New.Yorkie.Owner: First of all nobody reputable would sell any dog before 8 weeks of age, and most should not be sold/taken from mother before 12 weeks. To feed your baby you should buy a mild-formula canned dog food (not chunky) something like A/D formula from the vet. Call your veterinarian and tell them the situation and ask waht should I be feeding.

    Yorkies need food down 24/7 (hard food – tiny kibble, toy/small breed formula) and twice a day of wet canned food such as A/D formula.

    Good luck.

    First off, I would NEVERet one of my puppies leave the house until they were at least six weeks old. At 4 weeks, the puppy should just be starting on a dog food mix and start the process of not drinking moms milf. But you geeting her at 4 weeks ounds very early.

    I would check with your vet as to what would be the best food for the pup as he or she is only 4 weeks old. You want to make sure that the pup is getting the proper nutrion.

    I have a litter that will be a week old this friday. I will NOT let any of mine go until they are at least 6 weeks old and they are eating and drinking

    Best of Luck

    My little girl is 13 weeks old she is about 1 1/2 lbs. She is fiesty and full of energy. I also have a mini poodle and she gives him a run for his money. She will only sit if she can see the treat in your hand and will try to ignore you until she is able to see what she wants. I love her dearly and the housetraining is a work in progress.

  59. Debbieon 15 Jul 2008 at 6:49 am

    I’ve never done this before. I don’t have a comment but I would like to ask some questions please.
    My yorkie is 9 months old & his name is Riley. I am having trouble with him peeing inside after he has been outside. Plus I would also like to know how old or young can they be to breed them?? I have a girl
    whos female just went into heat today, so I was gonna take Riley over tomorrow to let him do his thing, but I was wondering if he can get hurt or if he’s too young?
    How can I keep him from barking, & chewing everything in sight? I have to put things up high on everything just so he won’t destroy it.
    Please help if you can. Thanks!! Deb

  60. margyon 08 Aug 2008 at 12:58 pm

    I have one yorkie 6 1/2 years old and am getting a 2 1/2 month old this weekend. My oldest is named Riggins and his brother will be Jacoby. Riggins is the smartest and sweetest dog I have ever owned! He loves to cuddle and play all at the same time. He did require alot of attention at first and still gets vocal when he doesn’t get his way, but I just talk back and he knows who is the boss! I can’t wait to see what his brother will be when he gets older. I wouldn’t have any other small dog!!!!

  61. Dixieon 16 Aug 2008 at 4:51 pm

    My husband and I are hopefully getting a yorkie. We don’t have kids so this is our first baby. I can hardly contain myself to pick out a name, gets toys…This is so exciting.

  62. Ernestoon 23 Aug 2008 at 10:24 am

    I am getting a yorkie in two to three weeks she will be about 8 or 9 weeks old when she arrives i just cant waIT FOR HER

  63. Sharonon 27 Aug 2008 at 6:17 am

    I’ll be getting my yorkie this sunday he is six weeks old. My daughter breeds Yorkies she has 3 puppies and she’s giving one to me the smallest one. I got to see him today he’s so tiny his mom weights 3lbs and dad weights 4lbs.

  64. Chewie's Mommaon 01 Sep 2008 at 11:18 pm

    I love all dogs, but I never used to be a small dog kind of girl. Until I was introduced to Yorkies. I still love big dogs (I grew up with Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, and Rotties) but my newfound love is definitely Yorkies. I convinced my hubby to let me get a puppy, so we went a picked him out last week. He will be coming home with us in two weeks after we finish paying him off! His name is Chewbacca (Chewie) because his cute little face sooo reminded me of Chewbacca. I can’t wait to bring home our cute little guy!!!

  65. Jamieon 10 Sep 2008 at 4:35 pm

    As far as all the research I have done yorkies need CONSTANT attention and supervision and cannot be left alone. I would so so love to have one, but I have to work a full time job so I have accepted that I just can’t have one. I really really wish I could though. How do all of you guys manage to have them?

  66. vickion 14 Sep 2008 at 10:14 pm

    i have been looking into yorkies for a month now and just got one. i am in love with him. i understand that they need attention so i try my hardest.they are very playful. and loveable

  67. Ciaraon 24 Sep 2008 at 7:39 pm

    I have a yorkie, his name is Benjamin [benji] for short :)
    I Love him!! There the Best dogs ever!

  68. Ciaraon 24 Sep 2008 at 7:45 pm

    To Debbie: Well first of all, It’s better to breed your female when she comes in heat again, because the 1st time isn’t good, unless you want to end up with a Vet bill & the 2nd litter is a whole lot better then the first, you can look that up :) & about the chewing, every yorkie does that from 1-8 months that normal. I know because I take mine to puppy classes & I asked the same thing haha, but if you have any more questions, just write me back :)

    I got my Yorkie from this site below and he’s a bundle of joy, got him on Oct 11th, he’s comfortable in his crate which I leave open, I only lock him in there when i’m cleaning the apartment. He is using his wee wee pads, of course slight mistakes every now and then and he loves going outside to do a number two. I find a long walk gets him nice and tired and puts him to bed all night.

    He’s 16 weeks now.

    I know i’m gonna end up getting another one next year.

  70. pcddevon 30 Oct 2008 at 4:06 pm

    hey wats up if you want to know how to keep your yorkie from eating everything keep reading

    1)you could put all you personal item in a closet and keep it shut unless your geting something from it

    2)you could take your yorkie to a training fusility about 3 times a week that will teach her/him to stop when told or not to do something

    3)or every time there bad put them in there cage for 5 or 10 minutes they will learn not to doit again

    i try this with my yorkie and they didn’t even bother to try and eat or bite my stuff

    thanks for reading your friend pcddev

    My little yorkie named Harley is three years old. He weighs
    4 1/2 lbs. He is very thin and a very picky eater. I have tried everything to get him to eat. I gave him vitamins, cooked chicken for him and even tried to hand feed him. The vet says he is just a lean dog and not to worry. He does not like to play, all he wants to do is set in my lap or lay on the bed and look out the window. Does any one know of a vitamin or anything I can give him to get him to have more energy.

    yorkies are wonderful I have 2 that had a litter of 5 nov 3rd.
    yorkies are full of energy and loving little creatures.

    I am 17 years old and am taking care of 2, 6 weeks old Yorkie pups.. and let me tell you they are a blast.. their full of energy and totally adorable. Like i said i have 2 of them ones name is Sadi and shes the queen of the house and sooo loud, and then theres Ladi, (she’s my fav) shes super quiet and such a cuddler. So i got the taste of both worlds! So ive been looking up training tips and stumbled across this website and i thought i would say how much i recommend these pups..

    I have a 2 month old Yorkie named Hitch. He doesn’t bark except when he wants in my lap – I feel relieved since I didn’t want him barking at every little noise. He’s getting the idea of outside potty but I know it’s a long road ahead on that one. I’m lucky to be home all day to watch his every move.

    I have a question – if I don’t clip the hair on his ears, will they stay floppy?

    I have a yorkie and he is 5 years old. I have had him since he was 6 weeks old and he has been the best dog i have ever had. He is more of my child then my pet. But he will not completely house train. I am pretty sure he never will. He is stubborn thats for sure.

    My yorkie will be 5 months old on may 12th she has brought so much joy in my life I love her so much she is so sassy when me and my husband are sleeping she gets right between us it is so cute and when he goes to kiss me she will bark at him and start kissing me herself I never thought I could have this much love for a dog but in my eyes she is our 6th child not a dog I have her so spoiled when I go down the road to grab someting real fast she will sit at the door and crys until I get home her little face is so wet with tears and she will not let anyone pick her up until I get home her name is Madison Coal my husband bought her for me on V day he put her in a gift bag right before he gave her to me looked in it and started crying because I wanted a Yorkie for such along time she is my baby and my shadow and some one offer me all the money in the world for her and I would tell them NO! so if you are thinking about getting a yorkie I promise you will not regret it at all

    I just my yorkie last night. His name is Appollo. He is so funny and full of energy. I am excited about having him. I have been wanting a yorkie for months and I have him now. I will get him a playmate in the near future after I have had him for a while. He is only 7 weeks and he loves being held and he loves to jump at my feet.

  100. Shannonon 22 Sep 2009 at 11:21 pm

    I am getting a Yorkie for Christmas this year, and I am so excited about it because I have wanted one for months now, and my parents are actually buying me one!!! I know that I takes A LOT of your time and patience raising a dog, especially a yorkie, but both me and my parents have had years of experience training, showing, and raising all types of dogs, so no worries there:) We have been looking around for about a month now, and I think that we have found the perfect little boy! I have been thinking about names recently, and I have been debating against two; Riley and Nemo. If you have any name ideas, that would be helpful; maybe one will stand out :)
    ps- try not to give any names like Bently or Dolce, Im not planning on spoiling him, and I don’t really want a name that would suggest that I am. Thank you!
    I <3 my Yorkie!

  101. yorkieluvaon 23 Sep 2009 at 8:37 pm

    Shannon, that is sooo cute that you are getting a yorkie for christmas this year, and such a relief that you and your family have a ton of experience. People today get dogs without stopping to think if they are even ready for such a big commitment. People don’t realize that Yorkies can live for up to 13+ years; they only think about right now, today, not the future, not where they are going to be, or where they are going to be living, or anything like that. And as for name suggestions, I really like the name Riley. Its really cute, but not too sissy:)
    Its kinda hard for me to give you name suggestions when I haven’t meet nor seen the dog like you have. My favorite names for a boy would have to be: Tiki, Rodeo, Dixon, and of course, Riley! My favorite names for a girl would have to be: Trixi, Carmen, and Callie! I wish you luck with your future Yorkie, and for it to bring you only love and happiness <3

    Just got an 8 week old male yorkie last Sat. My 2 year old Yorkie/pom (also male) went into an immediate pout and will not remain in the same room with the puppy. If they do happen to be in the same room the older one growls at the little one. I’m really afraid to leave them alone and wondering if there’s anything I can do to make this situation better and fast! We have a very large lab that the yorkie/pom loves and plays with all the time so he is use to sharing, but definitely not with the little Colonel!
