Breed Spotlight: Yorkshire Terrier

The Yorkshire Terrier is a cantankerous little canine with a personality that is larger than life. These lovable lap dogs do not need much exercise and are easy enough to keep groomed, though housebreaking is often a challenge.

Yorkies are smart, easily trainable and make terrific watchdogs, but they also have a tendency to bark. Adaptable, compact and delightfully intelligent, Yorkies are the perfect city-dwelling companion and well-suited to apartment living.

Yorkies are so well-suited to apartment living that they are frequently recognized as one of the most popular dog breeds in the U.S. and the most popular breed in Arkansas. If you’re in the market for a fearless little lapdog, you won't find a better companion than a Yorkie.

Did You Know

A Yorkie named Smoky was the world’s first therapy dog? After saving the lives of several soldiers in World War II, she visited wounded soldiers in hospitals. Today there are six memorials honoring Smoky in the United States and one international memorial in Australia.

Do I Need to Vaccinate My Puppy in Arkansas?

Yes. According to A.C.A. § 20-19-305, “All dogs, cats, and other animals shall be vaccinated against rabies as required by the State Board of Health.”

Does Arkansas Have Leash Laws?

No. There is no statewide leash law in the State of Arkansas. However, the state allows ordinances or rules to be promulgated by any county commission or municipality relating to the control and management of dogs within the county. In other words, whether or not you need to license your dog in Arkansas depends entirely upon the county or city in which you reside.

Do I Need a Dog License in Arkansas?

The short answer is “Yes” and “No”. Like many of the dog laws in Arkansas, whether or not you need to license your dog is entirely up to the county or city in which you reside. Many counties in Arkansas have some sort of dog licensing law in place. That’s why it’s always a good idea to check with your local government to ensure your dog complies with all local ordinances.

Does Arkansas Require Dogs To Be Harnessed in the Car?

No. As of January 2020, Arkansas does not have a law requiring dogs to wear seat belts or be secured within the vehicle during transportation. However, current legislation gives Arkansas law enforcement the power to ticket a driver should they deem the transportation of an animal to be cruel or unsafe.

Regardless of state law, it’s best to keep dogs restrained and out of the front seat. Dogs who insist on climbing into the front seat should be placed in the back, in a crate. If your dog’s crate doesn’t fit in the car, you should invest in a barrier to keep them out of the front seat.
