YORKSHIRE TERRIER NAMES
Yorkshire TerriersThe Yorkshire Terrier is a toy dog that holds its origins in Yorkshire, England. It is difficult to know for sure precisely what dog breeds were used in its creation, but it is believed that the Yorkshire Terrier was intended for catching small vermin, such as rats and mice. The Yorkshire has a long, bluish and tan coat that hangs straight and parts down the middle. Their hair is soft, silky, fine, and extremely high-maintenance. Their coat must either be cut very short or washed and brushed almost daily. They are generally intelligent, independent and spunky with the males being especially territorial, and sometimes attack without regard to their small size. They are small and easily injured, so its best not to have one around small children. Unfortunately, purebred Yorkshire Terriers also suffer from genetic disorders like many other purebreds. Liver shunt is the most common and is characterized by small stature, behavioral abnormalities, poor muscle development, seizures, unresponsiveness, etc. Hypoglycemia occurs sometimes in puppies and they will seem limp and lifeless, it's gums and tongue usually grayish blue in color. Hypoglycemia is serious disorder and death can occur if the case is severe, unless properly diagnosed and cared for immediately. |
