At this exact moment in time you are probably reading this article right now because you are in need of a new pet or rather companion. Quite a few of your friends have suggested that you get any one of AKC Parti colored Yorkie puppies for sale at the moment and you are mulling over the idea. If you are a bit interested in this breed, then do finish up on this article for more information before you decide.

Prior to taking on any pet Yorkie or any pet for that matter, do take an inventory of your readiness to be a good owner and master. Remember that it takes a lot of time and responsibility when one wants to be good owner, and it is a life decision than a passing hobby or fancy. If you are not sure if you can fully commit your full attention and time to a pet, then it is a good idea not to get a pet. Remember that it takes a lot of time and commitment to have a pet of any kind.

Once you are one hundred percent sure of your capability as a responsible pet owner, then you should go and get more information. The information that you will be needing will be related to or involving the pet that you have chosen, and in this case the Yorkie. Get as much information as you can to arm yourself with enough information befitting a responsible pet or dog owner.

There is no real difference between a regular Yorkie or Yorkshire terrier and a parti colored Yorkie. Both are definitely purebreds and the only difference is that the regular Yorkie has tan and blue color variants while the parti Yorkie has black, white, and tan variants and combinations in between.

As these dogs are purebreds, and also quite popular ones, then do expect prices to be on the steep end. These dogs are by no means in the lower price ranges, as they will set you back USD 1200 to USD1500 for an American Kennel Club registered one. In some regions it can be much higher depending on demand and supply conditions.

Personality wise it can be quite a bossy dog and will be known for its tenacity, feistiness and courage. Although small, it really has all the traits of the larger terrier and may require an owner with a strong personality so that it can be more easily trained. So if you have a meek personality, this may not be really the dog for you.

Despite its size, this breed is fairly long lived, and can have a lifespan of anywhere from thirteen to twenty years. This can also be extended somewhat with proper and adequate care and maintenance. When it comes to diet, it has to be fairly strict somewhat due to their sensitive digestive systems.

Like any dog, they also have their share of health issues, such as chronic diarrhea, if one is not careful with its diet, and also vomiting. They are easily injured also and are very sensitive to any form of anesthesia, and thus must be kept indoors a majority of the time to prevent any untoward incidents.
