A toy breed with unusual beauty, the Yorkie was used originally in the mines as a ratter. In those days the breed was larger and heavier. Some of the aggressiveness has remained in the breed. It is a lovable and clever companion enjoying the presence of older people. Because of its size, it can be fragile.
