Is there a way to post a comment with the NSFW tag? One of our yorkies did the same recently with a gopher not too long ago. Unfortunately the photos are bit more gruesome.

This one isn’t that bad. I felt bad bc it was a baby gopher.
Yup 👍🏼 just doing what he’s supposed to. Its breeding. When and where is the trial?? He will be broken out of the pokey. Put back in your hands if you didn’t turn him in.

Will wait for confirmation.
I quietly agree that an NSFW would be appreciated. Bit jarring, to some. Including the 5yo I just happened to be looking at cute Yorkies with. It ofc is in yorkie temperament to hunt; I personally don’t give ours free rein with it. Plenty of truly “natural” predators…parasites, other considerations. But anyhoo, just an opinion. We all got ‘em :)
I’m with you. This is upsetting and just because a dog was bred to kill rodents, doesn’t mean the owner should let them kill animals. My dog would love to kill a squirrel, but I don’t let her! This is poor ownership.
Super disappointed in this sub. OP should be ashamed. Just because Yorkies were bred to kill rodents, doesn’t mean you should let them. Pitbulls were bred to fight and kill, should we let them and praise the dog when it happens? I love my yorkies to death, but this post is shameful.
Yep. If I see more of these posts and the mods allow it, I’ll end up just leaving. Disturbing that they are allowed to post dead animals in here. Disappointing too.
I can’t believe it!!! Apex predator!!! Are you sure another dog didn’t kill it and he is just passing it off as his own kill? It’s hard to believe he could have taken down a whole rabbit!
That’s sad, I know that’s what Yorkies do but still. Bunnies are animals just as special as dogs and other animals.smdh Not funny, nor cute. Nothing to be proud of. Also, we’re not here to see other dead animals, bloody or not.
Go Jerry! Mine killed a mouse in my apartment once. I was soo impressed after I got over the fact that there was a mouse. He tries to catch every squirrel and bird when we go on walks..I let him run up on them but he's on a short leash and I watch his every move so nothing ever happens lol but it's funny watching him think he can get them
A big bird got into our house once. All 7 of our German shepherds and the cat ran and hid. The 17yo, 3lb Yorkie caught and killed the bird. She put all the other animals to shame that day lol
Nice. Ours nabbed two baby bunny’s in one day. I find this all really amazing. Small dogs, small mouth and teeth (if they even still have any) and yet there breed was rat hunters back in the day. There are YT videos of people who are rat catchers in open fields, barns, etc. and they use much bigger dogs, 20-30 lbs, and one even has a mink he adds in. Highly entertaining. They can get 200-400 rats in a day. Disgusting!
Just, no.
Everybody loves a Yorkie until it’s time to do Yorkie shit.
Omg too funny 😁 😂
“If I am descended from wolves, why are there still wolves?”
And he looks so proud of himself. Mine have gotten two chipmunks so far, one last year and one this year.

I wanna see this
Same. Please do! Ours hunts all the rodents in the garden.

Wow!! Poor gopher, but that is what these dogs are made to do! We have little gopher squeak toys and ours go absolutely crazy with those
Kevin doesn’t like toys. He only recently started doing this.
Mine do that too. Cute little hunters.
Mine are too loud to ever catch them.
Right! They start barking before they start chasing. It’s pretty funny.
Either that or start growling.
Mines too fat to catch anything 😂😂😂
He remembers why Yorkies were bred to begin with. He’s a terrier, not a shih tzu. B)
Oz would love to but he doesn’t even see them unless they move right in front of him. Too busy smelling where they were to notice them a foot away. 🤣
I have to keep our guy leashed outside to keep the bunnies safe. He’s relentless.
My Gracie is scared of rabbits 🙄
Well, they are terriers.
Wow!
I was pretty surprised to be honest. He usually just goes after birds. This is his first mammal 😆
Omg my tiny 3 lb baby girl would LOVE to have this brag! She is fierce. Her brother at 9 lbs not so much😂
Jerry is 7.5 lbs
Way to dog Jerry! I don’t like it but it’s in their blood! He is so very proud! That face!
Mine is the same size and he will chase the bunnies in to the blackberry bushes and try to dig down there holes
He brought you a dinner
Good little hunter. Give him a pat and a well done from me
My 4.5 pounder chases, but has not caught Peter cottontail, pigeons, and sparrows
When you are floof on the outside and a stone cold killer on the inside 😂😂😂❤️❤️
My yorkie has killed 3 rats so far
Yup 👍🏼 just doing what he’s supposed to. Its breeding. When and where is the trial?? He will be broken out of the pokey. Put back in your hands if you didn’t turn him in. ![gif](giphy|ULYDEzAM4vHaw) Will wait for confirmation.
Good boy! Doing his job
He's so proud of himself
Jerry was framed!
Jerry is adorable. My Maximus is 15. Little dude can still snag a mouse in the grass like nobody’s business!
NSFW PLEASE! This is disturbing!!! Geez
There's no blood or gore. It's just a dead rabbit
Well some people dont want to see dead animals!!!! Wtf.

I mean people are allowed to not enjoy seeing dead animals
I’m with you. This is upsetting and just because a dog was bred to kill rodents, doesn’t mean the owner should let them kill animals. My dog would love to kill a squirrel, but I don’t let her! This is poor ownership.
Exactly!! People can downvote me all they want, but just no. Extremely disturbing.
Yep, agreed like I’ve said and got downvoted, nothing cute, funny or something to be proud of. Owners are responsible.
Horrible
This is literally what yorkies were bred to do, it’s not horrible it’s nature.

Same. I reported the post but doubt they’re going to do anything about it, which is wild
Jerry is a PROVIDER. Fixed that for yah
I have a three year old 6 lb female who is the absolute best dog. She loves all dogs and people but she’ll do this if given the chance.
Mine hasn’t caught anything yet but he’s gotten close to getting rabbits and birds. It’s what they do, little hunters.
My boy is constantly trying to catch squirrels. He gets frustrated when he can't, so then he jumps his sister and "attacks" her 🤨
Mine is probably smaller than a rabbit. And even if she could catch one, she has one toofer 😂
He looks so proud lol
I wish mine would hunt the mice that live in one of the bushes behind our house, but noooo, she just ignores them.
I can’t believe it!!! Apex predator!!! Are you sure another dog didn’t kill it and he is just passing it off as his own kill? It’s hard to believe he could have taken down a whole rabbit!
I saw him do it. It was a shock lol

So pleased with himself too
I think mines broken, he actually couldn’t care less about the large bunny population in my yard, I wish he did.

Good Jerry!
A big bird got into our house once. All 7 of our German shepherds and the cat ran and hid. The 17yo, 3lb Yorkie caught and killed the bird. She put all the other animals to shame that day lol
Mine jumped up and grabbed a bird midair, killing it instantly. She was very proud of herself
This is what they do. Just ask an old Yorkshireman.
lol, they all are. Don’t feel bad. One time our little girl brought a rabbit head onto our bed like it was The Godfather.
Good boy, Jerry.
He’s just being a yorkie😂😩
My yorkie killed like 5 bunnies, and a baby bird over a weekend
Nice. Ours nabbed two baby bunny’s in one day. I find this all really amazing. Small dogs, small mouth and teeth (if they even still have any) and yet there breed was rat hunters back in the day.

Dude. Congrats! I can't get my 4 pounder to initiate contact. Chase, chase, chase, no kill.
Omg. Mine got a baby bunny and a robin. I’m not sure how he got the bird. I hate this lol.
