Yorkiepoo Characteristics

Smart, gentle, and full of love, the Yorkiepoo makes a great companion dog and family friend. While very energetic, these dogs make a fantastic pet for even the most novice pet parents.  Yorkipoos are considered highly trainable, but early obedience training and socialization are key to having a well-adjusted pup. 

Fast Facts

  • Energy Moderate
  • Size Small
  • Trainability Determined

Like many dogs crossbred with the Poodle, the Yorkiepoo was originally bred as a companion dog for those who are allergic to animals. The Yorkiepoo was also meant to be a small breed that did not suffer the same diseases as the Yorkshire Terrier or Poodle, both of which are prone to health problems as a result of poor breeding or overbreeding.  These dogs are commonly found with white, black, or brown coats.
 
The perfect size to be taken anywhere, the Yorkiepoo can stand between 7-15 inches at the shoulder and weigh anywhere between 3-14 lbs. While Poodles tend to latch onto their owners, the Yorkshire Terrier has a strong independent streak. Yorkiepoos can swing either way – yours might turn out to be a constant lap accessory, or rather independent, depending on the personality of its parents.  
 
Here’s something to watch out for: Many dogs who weigh less than ten pounds believe they are much larger than they actually are and are not afraid to pick fights with large dogs. To help ensure your Yorkipoo doesn’t find itself in trouble, introduce him to large dogs under close supervision and be prepared to break up any potential quarrels. If you plan on taking your Yorkiepoo to a dog park, keep a constant eye on your dog, as it's not unheard of for small dogs to be viewed as prey for untrained larger breeds.

How dog-friendly is Minnesota?

Minnesota has some excellent dog-friendly accommodations and services and is well on its way to becoming one of the more pet-friendly states. It’s a great place to own a dog!


We evaluated scores across two primary studies to get accurate state rankings. Both studies ranked states according to various pet-friendly criteria like animal cruelty laws, pet-friendly accommodations and services, and the number of hiking trails and dog parks.


The first study, by animal advocacy group Pawsafe, ranked Minnesota as 14th most pet-friendly state. This includes a good ranking for its animal welfare laws which evaluate laws against abuse, neglect and fighting.


Safewise, a national safety evaluator, ranked Minnesota as the 26th most pet-friendly state. A little lower than Pawsafe, but still doing pretty well comparatively. 


Combining these two studies together puts Minnesota towards the middle of the pack of pet-friendly states.

Are cities in Minnesota pet-friendly?

The personal finance site Wallethub ran a study to evaluate cities for pet-friendliness. They reviewed the 100 largest cities in the country. Here’s how Minnesota’s biggest cities stack up.

Minneapolis

Minneapolis ranked 28th on the list, scoring 63rd place for pet budget, 25th for pet health and wellness, and 25th for outdoor pet-friendliness. 


A Trust for Public Land (TPL) study reviews the nation’s 100 largest cities to see which has the most dog parks per capita. Minneapolis ranked 27th on the list at 1.7 dog parks per 100,000 people.

St. Paul

Even though Minneapolis and St. Paul are known as the Twin Cities, they rank differently in terms of pet-friendliness. St. Paul also ranked well, but just a few spots lower than Minneapolis at the 33rd spot for overall pet-friendliness.

A few more facts for dog-lovers in Minnesota

BringFido lists Minnesota as a pet-friendly travel destination with over 1800 verified pet-friendly hotels and motels. The site also lists Minnehaha Park and Minnesota Point as popular dog-friendly attractions in the area.


Thirty-five percent of Minnesota residents own a dog. This is below the national dog ownership rate of 40%, but not a whole lot lower. 


What kinds of dogs do Minnesotans love? According to the American Kennel Club (AKC), the most popular dogs in Minnesota are Labradors, Retrievers, and German Shepherds. Other popular breeds include Huskies, Beagles, and French Bulldogs. 

Animal welfare & dog shelters in Minnesota

Minnesota saved 52,742 dogs and cats during 2020. Approximately 3,380 animals were killed over this same period. 


Thirty-two out of 90 of the animal shelters within Minnesota are no-kill shelters. The percentage of no-kill shelters is rather low, but the state has an above-average save rate of 83%. This is short of the 90% mark needed to be considered a no-kill state but is improving.
