The Yorkie as a Miner

These dogs did not sniff gold, but the gold speckles from their long, silky coats helped coal miners in seeing gold inside dark gold mines.

Prior to the Yorkie doing the mining, there were white dogs but they got too grimy after the mining while the black ones who held this job could not be seen by the miners. The dark hair of the Yorkies hid the soot and their golden strands of hair made them quite visible.
