@reneeruthofficial: Everyone assumes shaking means a Yorkie is cold… but that’s usually not the case. Yorkshire Terriers are highly sensitive, emotionally intelligent little dogs—and shaking is often their way of processing excitement, alertness, stimulation, or big feelings in a very small body. It’s one of those things nobody warns you about when you get a Yorkie… but once you know, you really know. This is part of my series: “What they don’t tell you when you get a Yorkie” Click + to stay part of the convo!! We’d love to have you!!

Renée Ruth :

Yorkies don’t shake just because they’re cold ❄️Here are the real reasons they might be shaking: • Excitement (happy shakes are VERY real) • Anxiety or nervousness • Overstimulation (too much noise, movement, people) • Alertness / being on high watch • Strong emotions in a tiny body • Anticipation (food, walks, car rides 👀) • Low blood sugar (especially in puppies) • Stress or uncertainty • Wanting reassurance or comfort • Cold sometimes — but it’s usually last on the list Yorkies feel everything BIG. Tiny body. Massive emotions. 👇 Comment which one you think fits YOUR Yorkie—or add one I missed.
