Yorkies, or Yorkshire Terriers, are small, spirited dogs known for their big personalities and affectionate nature. They’re intelligent, loyal, and often form very strong bonds with their people, happily soaking up attention and companionship. Despite their tiny size, they’re confident, playful, and full of charm. An ideal home for a Yorkie is one where they can be close to their humans and feel included in daily life. They thrive in calm, attentive households that enjoy snuggles, gentle play, and consistent routines. Because they’re so people&#226&#128&#145oriented, Yorkies do especially well with families who are home often and can give them the affection they love.   What to Love about Freddy Mercury: This little guy is the ultimate lap dog and insists on being as close to his humans as possible! Freddy loves everyone he meets, adores attention, and has a playful, happy personality that makes him a joy to be around. He’s great with kids, has done wonderfully with every dog he’s met, and while he hasn’t met cats yet, his friendly nature suggests he’d do just fine.   Freddy is a smart, affectionate boy who enjoys playtime, snuggles, and being part of the action! He loves his food and prefers not to share, but he’s easily managed with a little guidance. He’s doing well on a leash, working on his crate training, and is overall an easygoing, loving companion.
