The 25 Most Popular Dog Breeds In The United States

#9 YORKSHIRE TERRIER

Yorkshire Terriers were first developed in their namesake Yorkshire, England in the 1800s and are known to make great companions. Often called “Yorkies”, this breed was first introduced into North America in 1872 and registered with the American Kennel Club just eight years later.

Yorkshire Terriers are small dogs that tend to be curious, active, and constantly in need of attention. They’re easy to train and naturally quick to learn when food and praise are involved.
