What does a Yorkie look like?

Yorkshire Terriers are diminutive dogs with a well-proportioned build and a distinctive appearance. They feature a long, flowing coat that’s incredibly silky to the touch, often styled with a topknot tied with a bow.

Their expressive eyes and perky ears add to their charming appearance. Though their tails are docked in some regions, many countries now keep them natural, allowing their feathery tails to sway as they walk.
