At The Yorkshire Terrier's coat is very similar to human hair and should be treated accordingly. If the coat is kept long, it needs to
be brushed daily. To avoid eye irritation, the hair on the upper part of the head should be trimmed short or pulled up into a topknot. The
Yorkie will need a bath every week or so. Check the ears weekly for any debris or signs of infection.
Yorkies love their owners, and are very intelligent and eager to please. Offering effusive praise and treats for good behavior will work
far better with the Yorkie than harsh corrections. Starting from an early age, the Yorkie should be socialized to strange situations, people, and
other dogs. Take him into new situations slowly, and always in a calm and happy atmosphere. These should be positive experiences. Despite
their small size, Yorkies can participate in and excel at canine activities such as rally, agility and obedience, and many Yorkies serve with
their human partners in roles such as therapy work.
