Train Yourself First

 Remember, puppies are babies and require guidance and supervision. When not on your lap, they need a safe space like a crate to prevent potty accidents and undesirable behaviors. Take responsibility for your puppy's training by keeping an eye on them at all times and providing a designated area for them to do their business, like a puppy pad or outdoor area. 

 Yorkie Wellness Tip

A healthy lifestyle is crucial for a happy and healthy Yorkie. Despite their energetic spirit, Yorkies can tire easily, especially after 20 minutes of exercise. Aim for a daily 1-mile walk around the neighborhood to keep them happy and healthy.

Yorkie Myth-Buster

Contrary to popular belief, Yorkies are actually hypoallergenic! They don't have an undercoat that sheds dander, making them a great choice for those with allergies. Their hair requires regular grooming, just like yours, and they can be styled in a variety of ways. You can DIY or enlist the help of a professional groomer to keep your Yorkie looking and feeling their best.
