Are Yorkies good with kids?
Yorkies are terriers, so despite their adorable, tiny exterior (of which they are totally unaware), their stubborn temperament can sometimes make them a little defensive towards the rough manner in which young kids may handle dogs. Proper socialization and training will keep Yorkies happy around children. As with any breed, it is recommended that your child is always supervised when interacting with your Yorkshire Terrier to keep both the child and dog safe.
