Yorkshire Terriers for Dummies by Peter F. Veling, Tracy Barr (2004, Paperback)

A VERY INFORMATIVE AND NEEDED TOOL IN RAISING YORKIES..IT HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL WITH FINDING OUT ABOUT THE SPECIAL NEEDS OF THE BREED LIKE WHAT TO DO OR EXPECT AND WHAT TO LOOK FOR..

This book contains lots of pointers good for just about anyone that is either considering getting a Yorkie or already has one.

We got a Yorkie puppy recently and I wanted any info I could get on raising the puppy. I had heard that Yorkies are such a fragile breed. I figured a great place to start, besides the vet, would be the Dummies series of books. I was right about the book! It is packed with tons of good info, some I already knew but mostly new good information. It was worth the purchase.

This book, while easy to read and a snap to understand, will tell the reader what a gift from heaven a Yorkie really is....

I just recieved a brand new yorki puppy for christmas and wanted to be sure I trained her right and provide the proper stuff for her. This book was recommended to me, I found it on your site, ordered it, got it right away, was very happy with it. I have learned a lot from it.

Bought it as a gift for someone who just adopted this breed. I skimmed the pages and learned so much about the breed. I love the simple language of the dummies series. Any dummies book proves very useful and informative.

The other day I was in Petsmart and saw this book... I have two yorkies and I just started reading it and couldn't put it down.. until I saw the price... so I decided to look on ebay.. there is everything you need to know about them.. even I who has two little ones I still dont know everything... Is nice to know what kind of vegtables and fruit I can feel them for a healthy snack instead of treats from the store.. my newist one is 6 months and I know her stomach isnt fully able to eat treats but I may be able to feed her someother options.. Yes it has everything in this book how to make a bow.. they are so hard to get in but what better way for a book to tell you!!! A+++++ BOOK!!!

i can not give you a proper review as i never received the book. I still am disputing with the seller and with ebay. sorry i am not able to review this item.

After losing my chihuahua who was almost 13 yrs. old last year, I decided not to get another dog, as it was too stressful when you lose them. (I had lost a cocker spaniel 10 yrs ago) Now I am so lonley I decided to adopt a yorkie from a rescue group and need all the help I can get, as I know from my daughter's yorkie, they are a totally different breeed!!!! I read this book, and was amazed at what and how much it could teach me. I then re-read it, and used a yellow highlighter and little post it's to mark critical issues & pages for easy reference in the near future.

All I can say is never group all dog breeds together - they are all individual. My previous experience with my cocker spaniel and chihuahua could have been so much easier had I known about this series of books before I brought them home.

I realized just how much of a "dummie" I was when it can to yorkies, and am now well prepared to welcome my new yorkie into my life and give her a well informed "forever momma"! I strongly urge anyone who is even thinking of getting ANY breed of dog to look into this series of books. I also urge them to think about rescuing a dog instead of purchasing a puppy - there are so many "throw away's" out there. It is very rewarding for both you and the dog.

great book for everyone!!!! i think every dog owner should own this book it is a great book for every collection!
