Alot of good information I didn't know. Very helpful for someone who has never had one of these unique little doggies.This book probably helped to save my puppies life by describing symptoms of a genetic disease common to Yorkies I kept persuing answers to my dogs unusual behavior. He eventalyy was diagnosed with a liver shunt and under went surgery 2 weeks ago. All is GREAT now.
Clear advice for new Yorkie owners
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I've been researching purchasing a Yorkie puppy (as a pet and companion not to show or breed) and this is the best of the books on caring for the breed that I've read thus far. I started with Janet Jackson's book and the Complete Idiot's Guide to Yorkshire Terriers by Liz Palika. Both are very good, but I found Gewirtz's book to be more thorough for my needs. It doesn't just stress the importance of socialization or obedience training, but tells you the right age to begin these processes. Also, the information is presented in a clear, well-organized fashion. It's simply easier to find the information you need. Obviously, you shouldn't just buy one book on the breed or raising your dog, but this should definitely be on your list.
Anyone need a good book? This is it!

For a new or a repeat Yorkie owner this book is a must-have on thebookshelf. It explains the basics as well as some nuances of the breed forlongtime owners. I have already recommended to this book to several friendswho are thinking of getting a Yorkie.
A Really Informative Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is an excellent book for any prospective Yorkie owner. It covers all aspects of owning a pet from birth to death and in between, including feeding, treats and grooming. There are helpful hints and little bits of trivia. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to own or presently owning a Yorkshire Terrier. You will not regret the purchase.
