    Other than the bare you should have done before you got one, no. Here is some bare starter info though.
    Remember they are still very much terriers and will give you that terrier attitude.
    I just found these on google.

    The Yorkshire Terrier seems oblivious of its small size. It is ever eager for adventure and trouble. This little dog is highly energetic, brave, loyal and clever. Affectionate with its master, but sometimes suspicious of strangers. It can be aggressive to strange dogs and small animals. In other words, it has true Terrier heritage. They do best with older, considerate children. Yorkies are easy to train, although they can sometimes be stubborn. The breed is demanding and dependant and needs a lot of human attention. The Yorkie is an excellent watchdog, defending its territory in no uncertain manner. They can get snappish if surprised, frightened or over-teased, but are usually very sweet and loving. They can be difficult to housebreak. These little dogs should not be over-protected, for they may become neurotic. The Yorkie likes to bark, but it can easily be taught not to do so.

    I know all this ,and for your info I did research this before I got one. I was not asking for the smart comment I sensed when I seen what you typed. I am aware on their background,color,hair etc. I wanted to know who owns one ,and who are aware of their behavior. I wish not to continue this message so Next>>>>>

    "Does anyone have any info" is not clear that you want to know if anyone else has one.

    Well it could have been a wide spread you are right. But I was not looking to get smart remarks just be to the point. Next in line. I am done typing with you.

    I have known several Yorkies. They are a lot of dog in a small package! Lots of people around here have small dogs, as we're in a city. The Yorkie I have known have had very strong personalities, and need an owner who is able to maintain an upper hand, or they can be little tyrants!

    Henry was my friend's Yorkie. They are an older couple, and Henry ruled the roost! When we went to their house, Henry would greet visitors at the door. When we'd inevitably gather in basically a circle to sit and chat, Henry would run over to me, look me square in the eye, and then hop right up into my lap at the merest invitation. He'd only stay for a few minutes before he'd hop off and go try another lap!

    Sadly, Henry went blind suddenly, which happens to some Yorkies. He ended up not adjusting well to not seeing, and after the second time he misjudged the stairs and tumbled down them, he was rehomed to a nice lady whose apartment was all on one floor. My friends were very sad, but they felt awful about Henry getting hurt in their three-story Victorian. He is now ruling the roost in his new home!
