Yorkie Pit Breed Description

The Yorkie Pit is a considerate and affectionate creature who does wonderfully with small children. Unlike the Yorkie Pit , the Yorkie Pit is a gentle and loving dog but can still be dangerous around small children because of their large size and clumsiness. The Yorkie Pit is known to be kind, loyal, gentle and friendly to those that he knows, likely forming close bonds with certain family members. The Yorkie Pit enjoys being able to be a family companion and is eager to please.

The Yorkie Pit ordinarily takes the best of the traits from the parent lineage to produce a keen, affectionate, active dog that is perhaps less inclined to chase off after a scent and more inclined to listen and obey their humans. Today, high-spirited, full of energy Yorkie Pit is a much-loved companion as well as an excellent dog. Also, some like to dig, bark quite a lot, and guard their toys and food. A bored Yorkie Pit - one who's left alone for long periods - becomes noisy and destructive. Not for first time dog owners, this combination needs direction and will thrive with kind but firm handling.
