Some assume that proper introductions to a new baby are not necessary because the Yorkshire Terrier is so small. This is absolutely not the case. These dogs may weigh in at only around 7 pounds, but they are oblivious to their size. Plus no one probably has to tell you that they can have a bit of an attitude and can be extremely demanding, if things don’t go their way. You want your Yorkie to view the new baby as a positive addition to the home, not an obstacle standing in the way of him getting attention. These tips will help.

1. Focus on Training

If your Yorkshire Terrier has any behavioral problems they should be addressed long before the baby arrives. Regardless if it is nipping, toy guarding, etc., it is important that you are established as the leader of the house before major changes in the home take place.
