Jasper

Jasper is 2 years old, he is very lively, happy, silly,clever and loving. I have never known a dog to be as affectionate. He likes to hug - he actually get up on your chest and lays his head into your neck while putting his paws on your shoulers. He also stands on his hind legs and reaches for you in a sort of boxing motion, it drives my other dog nuts. There is not a mean bone in his body hes a total whimp.

We also own an 8 year old toy Poodle named Dolly and she is the boss no questions asked. Even though she is smaller he does not test her. He loved her right off the bat when we adopted him when he was 7 months old. He is very social, loves everyone, and very good with children. Everyone who meets him loves him, we have had many people tell us that if we ever changed our minds that they would gladly take him. Like I would give him up! lol

He's an odd little thing he likes to sleep under the covers and on his back, or twisted on his side.He also like to throw his toys. Now when we buy him toys we have to take into account the weight of the toy that if we get hit it wont hurt too bad.

And from what ive seen by Yoranian standards he is a big boy. Most that i've read of are around 10lbs while Jasper is at least 15lbs possibly pushing 20lbs. Hes a bottomless pit to say the least. If there is food or even an empty plate he will not relax until you remove the plate or chip bag from his sight.

He's also a thief, if you leave a plate in his reach for even a moment you will com back to find something missing. Ive walked away from a snack and have come back to find it half eaten and fat boy licking his chops. Basically my Yoranian is a loving little glutton and i wouldnt change him. Hes soo odd and full of personality. I would recommend a Yorain to anyone especialy people with children.
