1) War Hero Smoky – Found in a WWII foxhole, this tiny Yorkie ran telegraph wire through a 21m pipe, saving soldiers’ lives. She later became one of the first therapy dogs for wounded troops!
2) Record Breaker – “Sylvia” holds the record for smallest dog in history at just 6.3cm tall and 9.5cm long, but still packed that famous Yorkie attitude!
3) Celebrity Favorite – Audrey Hepburn, Paris Hilton, and Whitney Houston all chose Yorkies as companions, helping transform the breed from working ratters to beloved pets.
4) Allergy-Friendly – Yorkies have hair (not fur!) that grows continuously like human hair and sheds minimally, making them perfect for allergy sufferers.
5) Color Transformers – Born black and tan, Yorkies gradually develop their signature steel blue/silver coloration by age 2-3.
