The Yorkshire Terrier is a tiny but confident companion breed known for its silky coat, bright personality and close attachment to people. In Indian homes it suits buyers who want a small indoor dog and are comfortable with regular grooming and gentle daily attention.
The Yorkshire Terrier was developed in nineteenth-century England from small terrier stock used by working families who wanted a compact but spirited dog. Over time, breeders refined the coat, size and elegant outline that made the Yorkie famous as a fashionable toy companion. Despite its polished look, the breed still carries a bold terrier attitude.
