So - when does the Yorkie brain fairy come? Molly will be three in October. Do you think it will happen then?

On a serious note, how long does the average Yorkie live? (Berners live only 7 - 9 years.)

I'm not sure when the "brain fairy" comes...It seems like they settle down and start behaving a little better around a year. And then I've heard they get a little better around 2 years again-but we haven't made it that far yet Emma is about 1.5 years and Milli is 8 months.

I think the average yorkie lives to be about 12-15 years, but I have heard of some being up to 20 years old.
