Yorkie Dictionary

Yorkies Have Their Own Vocabulary!


Terminology - Basic Yorkish - Learn it Well!


 

Yorked, yorking, york - This is when we love our humans by rubbing our heads and bodies against them. Almost like a cat. When a human lays on the floor, we will hop over and over his/her head yorking his/her face on each pass. We also love to york human feet when they’re standing still. If a human is sitting in a chair or holding us or if a human is in any position where we can reach his/her face, we cover their face with kisses. 

Yorkieslurpies - Our tongues can slurp over a face in two seconds flat!

Yorkaholic - An abnormal addition to one or more Yorkies. That’s why we are the alpha members of our family.
