Top Ranked Dog Number 5

5) Yorkshire terrier

Breed Nature and Personality)

Each Yorkie will have their own little traits and quirks. Yorkshire Terriers have above average intelligence for canines which generally makes them easy to house train when using proper methods. Yorkshires are also full of energy, and most are up for exercise or play time any time. They are naturally suspicious of new people and will bark incessantly, and in some extreme cases snap. Separation Anxiety is very common in Yorkshire Terriers. They get attached to the people they love and as companion dogs, believe they are fulfilling their duty to be in the company of people.

 

Known Health Problems)

Health issues often seen in the Yorkshire Terrier include bronchitis, lymphangiectasia, portosystemic shunt, cataracts, and keratitis sicca. Additionally, Yorkies can often have a delicate digestive system, with vomiting or diarrhea resulting from consumption of foods outside of a regular diet.

Conclusion)

Yorkies are a great dog for people living alone or retirees. They tend to bond to one person, and once they form that bond they can become inseparable. Although full of energy, Yorkshire Terriers are perfect for living in small spaces such as apartments. Just be sure to provide your Yorkie with daily exercise, either inside or out.
