How much is a Yorkshire Terrier in Singapore, and is it HDB-approved?

About the Yorkshire Terrier
The Yorkshire Terrier is a glamorous toy breed with a fine, low-shedding coat and a bold terrier heart. HDB-approved and allergy-friendlier, it is a spirited companion that loves being close to its person.
Where the Yorkshire Terrier comes from. The Yorkshire Terrier was bred in 19th-century Yorkshire to catch rats in the mills, then refined into the glamorous toy companion known today.
In temperament, expect a dog that is bold, affectionate, feisty and alert. It suits allergy-prone and flat owners who want a small, glamorous, characterful companion. Knowing why the breed was originally developed is the quickest way to predict how it will behave in your home: a working heritage usually means more exercise and stimulation, while a companion heritage usually means a dog that simply wants to be near you.

Colours and coat variants of the Yorkshire Terrier
Yorkshire Terrier litters here typically arrive in Blue & Tan, Black & Tan, Steel & Gold, Blue & Gold, Tan and Black & Gold. Rarer colours in a litter are priced toward the top of the $4,688–$5,388 range and common ones toward the bottom; the colour never changes the temperament, health screening or paperwork. If you want a specific colour, say so in your first WhatsApp message and we will tell you honestly whether one is in a current litter or worth waiting for.
Can you keep a Yorkshire Terrier in an HDB flat?
The Yorkshire Terrier is on HDB’s approved list. HDB allows one dog per flat from its approved breed list, and keeping a non-approved breed can mean a fine and rehoming, so it is worth getting right before you commit. See our full list of HDB-approved dogs, or read the official HDB pet rules.
Living with a Yorkshire Terrier in Singapore
The climate reality
The fine silky coat suits the climate; many owners keep it short. Use a harness rather than a collar to protect the delicate windpipe.
Health to know about
Prone to patellar luxation, tracheal collapse, dental disease and, in some lines, portosystemic liver shunts. Dental care and a harness are especially important.
Every puppy follows Singapore's core vaccination schedule (weeks 6, 8 and 12, with deworming at each visit) and comes home around week 9. See the full puppy vaccination schedule.
Grooming, care and exercise
Coat and grooming
The Yorkshire Terrier has a low-shedding, allergy-friendlier coat with high grooming needs. It needs regular brushing and a professional groom roughly every 4 to 6 weeks to prevent matting, which humidity speeds up.
Exercise and energy
The Yorkshire Terrier needs a proper daily walk plus play and a bit of training each day. It is adaptable to a flat, but a bored Yorkshire Terrier will invent its own fun, so keep its body and mind occupied.
For the first weeks at home, our puppy training guide covers crate, potty and settling routines that suit a Singapore flat.

Cost of owning a Yorkshire Terrier in Singapore
Beyond the purchase price, budget for the monthly reality of a Yorkshire Terrier: around S$40 to S$80 a month on quality food for a toy dog, professional grooming every 4 to 8 weeks, often S$50 to S$100 a session for this coat, plus the annual AVS licence (S$13.50 to S$81), routine vet visits, and preventive care such as deworming and parasite control. Many owners also take out pet insurance, which can run a few hundred dollars a year. A Yorkshire Terrier typically lives 13–16 years, so you are planning for a long, rewarding commitment, not a one-off cost.

How to buy a Yorkshire Terrier ethically in Singapore
"Who is an ethical Yorkshire Terrier breeder, and who should I avoid?" is the most asked question in Singapore's dog communities, and it has a checkable answer rather than a rumour-based one. Singapore has plenty of unlicensed and backyard sellers, a Yorkshire Terrier is a 10-plus-year commitment, and three checks protect you from the wrong source.
1. Verify the licence
Only buy from an AVS-licensed seller and check the number yourself on the AVS registry. Ours is BR25052.
2. See the puppy and papers
Meet the Yorkshire Terrier in person, and ask for its health certification, vaccination booklet and ancestry records before you commit.
3. Be wary of bargains
A Yorkshire Terrier priced far below the $4,688–$5,388 range, or a seller who rushes you, is a red flag for an unlicensed or unhealthy source.
Flexible on breed and age? Adoption is the most ethical route of all; our honest adopt-or-buy guide explains what adoption in Singapore actually offers.

Yorkshire Terrier questions, answered
Is a Yorkshire Terrier HDB-approved?
Yes. The Yorkshire Terrier is on HDB’s approved breed list and its tiny size suits flat living well.
Do Yorkshire Terriers shed?
Very little. Their coat is more like fine hair than fur, which makes them allergy-friendlier, but it needs regular brushing and trimming to stay tangle-free.
How much is a Yorkshire Terrier puppy in Singapore?
An AVS-licensed, vaccinated Yorkshire Terrier from Puppy Singapore is priced within $2,888 to $4,488, including vet check, vaccinations to date, health certification and ancestry records.
How much exercise does a Yorkshire Terrier need?
The Yorkshire Terrier needs a proper daily walk plus play and a bit of training each day. It is adaptable to a flat, but a bored Yorkshire Terrier will invent its own fun, so keep its body and mind occupied.
Are Yorkshire Terriers good with children and families?
Yorkshire Terriers can be lovely family dogs, but their tiny size means they are best with gentle, older children who will not handle them roughly; always supervise play with toddlers.
How much does it cost to own a Yorkshire Terrier in Singapore?
Beyond the Yorkshire Terrier's purchase price of $4,688–$5,388, expect roughly S$40 to S$80 a month on food, plus grooming, the annual AVS licence (S$13.50 to S$81), routine vet care, and optional pet insurance. Grooming is the swing factor: high-grooming coats cost more to maintain.
How big does a Yorkshire Terrier get?
The Yorkshire Terrier is a toy breed, weighing about 2–3.5 kg fully grown. That size is within HDB’s approved range, so it suits a flat.
How do I find a responsible Yorkshire Terrier breeder in Singapore?
Insist on an AVS-licensed seller whose licence you can verify on the government registry, ask to see the puppy in person and its health and vaccination records, and be wary of unusually cheap Yorkshire Terrier listings or sellers who rush you past the paperwork. Puppy Singapore is licensed under BR25052 and shows you exactly where to check it.
How long do Yorkshire Terriers live?
A Yorkshire Terrier typically lives 13–16 years. A lean weight, a quality diet, regular dental and ear care, and yearly vet checks are the biggest levers on a long, comfortable life.
