Yorkshire Terrier

🧠 Temperament

Confident and lively, with more terrier boldness than their size suggests. Strongly bonded to their person.

🎾 Exercise

Low to moderate — short walks plus play.

✂️ Grooming

High if kept long; much easier in a short cut. Dental care matters.

🏙️ In a NYC apartment

Very apartment-friendly. Barking at hallway noise is the common complaint.

Adoption fee $350
