I currently have 3 small yorkies. They are small terriers developed in Yorkshire England during the 19th century.
Yorkshire terriers are cute
Yes they are! They were actually bred to catch rats that scurried around clothing mills.
but they are so tiny, i do not see how they can catch a rat
They are probably quick and can get into small spaces. Nowadays they are a popular companion breed.
i bet they are fun to have around, like a living toy
They are placed in the toy terrier section of The Terrier Group. So yeah they probably are.
it seems all terriers where breed to catch rats and now they are little playthings
Yes and with it's grey, black and tan shiny coat, it is also a beatiful dog.
