The Yorkshire Terrier is a small dog breed of terrier type developed during the 19th century in Yorkshire England to catch rats in clothing mills. The defining feature of the breed is its maximum size of 7 pounds although some may exceed this and grow up to 15 pounds. It is placed in the Toy Terrier section of the Terrier Group by the Federation Cynologique Internationale and in the Toy Group or Companion Group by other kennel clubs including the American Kennel Club. A popular companion dog has also been part of the development of other breeds such as the Australian Silky Terrier. It has a grey black and tan coat and the breed's nickname is Yorkie.

For adult dogs importance is placed on coat colour quality and texture. The hair must be glossy fine straight and silky. Traditionally the coat is grown out very long and is parted down the middle of the back but must never impede movement.

From the back of the neck to the base of the tail the coat should be a dark gray to a black colour and the hair on the tail should be a darker black. On the head high chest and legs the hair should be a bright rich tan darker at the roots than in the middle that shades into a lighter tan at the tips but not for all dogs. Also, in adult dogs there should be no black hairs intermingled with any of the tan coloured fur.

The Yorkshire Terrier Wallpaper is a tan dog with a blue saddle. Particolours exist although they are not correct for the breed standard. The particolour coat is white with black/blue and tan. The white is caused by the recessive Piebald-gene. It is very rare to get a particolour and if one is found, it tends to be very expensive. Some dog are solid golden, they only produce pheomelanin others are liver or chocolate a brown colour; they only produce brown eumelanin but are unable to produce black eumelanin. The breed is defined by its colour and such non-standard colours may indicate health problems or cross-breeding with other breeds of other colours. The AKC registration form for Yorkshire Terriers allows for four choices: blue and tan blue and gold black and tan black and gold. Colour alone will not affect whether or not a dog is a good companion and pet. Even though off-coloured Yorkshire Terriers are advertised at premium prices being of an unusual or atypical colour is neither new desirable nor exotic.
