The History Of The Yorkshire Terrier.

The Yorkshire Terrier, or Yorkie for short, finds it unpretentious origins in Northerly Britain , in the counties of Yorkshire, Manchester and Leeds, in the years before 1750. The people of these areas originally made their living from the land and experienced great disruption in the time of the Economic Revolution. Many had to learn new methods of life to keep on to support their families. These persisting families, many from as far distant as Scotland, were attracted to the tiny fledgling communities to start a new life.

With this hardy group of migrants came similarly hardy pets and companions. In the 19th century, Scottish weavers started to arrive and brought with them the strong Scottish Terrier. Part of the Scottish Terrier bloodlines later turned into the breeds today known as the Skye, Scottish Terrier, West Highland White Terrier and the last of the named from their separation, the Cairn Terrier. There's each probability that they were forerunners to the current day Skye Terrier. All these Scottish breeds, with some English ones, were working dogs, used to keep the vermin in order in the coal mines and mills. To try to supply canines with outstanding ability at catching mice and rats, the common men of the day would breed only littlest, speediest and best ratters of the bunch. This is the reason no records were kept as regards what breeds were mixed to form the Yorkshire Terrier. Coaching Yorkies could be a bit annoying.

Rawdon B One could scarcely expect a pretty dog, indulging in a degree of both its folks, might be produced from a smooth-coated dog, a long-coated bitch or vice-versa.
