I'm glad you're asking questions prior to purchasing a puppy! There are many homes with Yorkies and children but it is so important to remember that Yorkie puppies are small and wiggle a lot. We all love holding these babies but sometimes children do not realize how quickly these pups can wiggle their way out of your arms and a fall could lead to a disaster. A child running and falling on a puppy or any leaving a door open can be heart breaking for everyone. BUT that doesnt mean you couldn't have a Yorkie. Have you considered an older pup? Sometimes a little heartier pup is born and would make a great pet for a home with children.
Keep asking questions, research the breed and breeders. Talk to your family and have them help your learn more about Yorkies and when you find that perfect furball to bring home everyone understands how to care for the new addition and the precautions that are necessary.
Best of luck and Welcome to YT!!
