Yorkshire Terriers - 5 Tips On How To Keep Your Yorkie From Being Aggressive

RSS Feed Icon Dog Health


Yorkshire terriers can become very aggressive if they are not trained well when they are young. This surprises many people because we all think of our Yorkie's as being very gentle. This is not always the case. Here are 5 tips on what to do to keep your Yorkie from becoming an aggressive pet.

  • When you feed your dog, make sure to separate her from any other animals you have in your home. Yorkshire terriers may become aggressive towards other animals when there is food involved, no matter if they are hungry or not.

  • Make sure your Yorkie has her own toys. This way she will know that she has things that belong only to her. Do not make her share her toys with your other pets or with dogs that come to visit.

  • When other animals visit your home, make sure you hold your Yorkie and do not allow the other animals to run around loose in your home. Your dog knows that it is her home, and should not have to share it with strangers.

  • Begin teaching good behavior when your Yorkshire terrier is a young puppy. It is much easier to teach a young dog than one who is older.

  • When your Yorkie behaves in an aggressive manner, see what happened before you do anything. Try not to raise your voice and certainly do not hit your dog. If you stay calm you will be able to diffuse the situation much more easily.

    • Follow these tips and training your Yorkie will be much easier.
