Owner guide - Get a little dog coat for the Yorkshire Terrier

Get a little dog coat for the Yorkshire Terrier for cold weather. Yorkshire Terriers do not have an undercoat to keep them warm. A store-bought coat will keep your pet warm and cozy.

Owner guide - Wash mucus

Wash mucus from the corners of the dog's eyes, daily if needed, with a cloth or wad of cotton soaked in warm water. Mucus will rot your pet's hair if it's not removed. Dry him off carefully.
