Yorkshire Terrier Accessories to Keep Your Yorkie Dog Safe






Yorkshire terrier accessories come in two varieties: Yorkshire terrier accessories which make perfect gifts for anyone who can’t resist these dynamic and spirited little canines. Gift accessories can include items like Yorkshire terrier figurines or mugs; photos, posters, and paintings; or even jewelry and clothing. Almost any Yorkshire terrier images which capture the personality of the breed are appreciated by its enthusiasts.

Then there are the Yorkshire terrier accessories you should have picked up for the little one’s arrival in your home, much in the same way that you would stock up on diapers and bottles for a newborn baby. Unlike a newborn baby, however, your Yorkie puppy will arrive ready to explore the world, and you want to make sure that exploration is safe.

Begin with a comfortable travel case in which you can stow your Yorkie dog during the trip home. You can find one with shoulder straps which will enable you to cart doggie around with ease on future expeditions, as long as you remember that it is not crush-proof like a fiberglass pet carrier.

Have a nylon buckle collar and nylon leash with a safety snap ready, or even better, go with a body harness which won’t pose a threat to doggie’s tiny neck. And order an identification tag to use as soon as the dog arrives home, until you can make arrangement for more permanent identification like a microchip implant.
Your Yorkshire terrier accessories would be incomplete without a couple of low-maintenance, chew-resistant, spill proof bowls for food and water. And of course, your Yorkie will need a crate to serve as a private domain, to which he or she can retire for privacy, a nap, or answer t he call of Nature while being housebroken. The crate should only be large enough for your adult Yorkie dog to stand up, turnaround, and stretch out fully when asleep.

Add a couple of chewy items lacking any parts small enough to get lodged in doggie’s windpipe, the proper grooming and bathing tools, and you’ll have what you need to make your Yorkie feel right at home!
