Do you need to groom a Yorkie?

Yes, Yorkies should be lightly brushed two to three times a week. Their long, silky coats require regular maintenance to stay healthy and free from tangles and mats. 

Yorkies’ long coats can touch the ground and gather debris, so occasional trimming around the paws and the underside can help keep them clean. Some pet parents maintain a shorter “puppy cut” for easier maintenance.

Don’t forget about ears, nails, and teeth. Yorkies can be prone to dental issues, so regular teeth brushing or dental treats can help maintain their oral health.
