Yorkshire Terrier History in Scotland
"The average Yorkshire terrier can learn a new trick after about 15 repetitions."
History of the Yorkie Breed in England
In England, Yorkies played a different role. England Yorkies helped poachers hunt down and kill rabbits. Although it's a theory, the history of Yorkshire terriers claims that hunters took advantage of the Yorkie's natural ability to chase after things, and of course the Yorkie's size. Then they used the Yorkie's naturally long hair to either pull both the dog and its catch out of rabbit holes, or to quickly grab the dog on their way to run from the law.

History of the Yorkshire Terrier Dog Breed in Contests
It wasn't until 1861 that the Yorkie appeared in the first dog show even though at the time, it wasn't known as the Yorkie. It was known as the Broken-Haired Scotch Terrier instead.

We were the proud parents of a Yorkie for 3 years. He, unfortunately, is no longer with us he passed away last year. Yorkies truly are a entertaining breed. I'll never forget the first time Yorkie (my daughter named him) dropped a field mouse at my feet..he was so proud of himself. LOL..Great lens! Thank you for submitting it to my ANIMAL ENTHUSIASTS GROUP. 5*'s
