Hi Joybelle. I'm sorry you having trouble. I know others have mentioned this already but I thought I'd add to it. My son who has very asthma and allergies and who gets very sick around dogs and cats does very well with my Yorkies. I have five. I'm not saying that allergies do not happen with Yorkies and some people but it is very rare. I'd hate to see you get rid of your baby and find that something else is causing this.
A quick little story; I had a Sun Conure (Small parrot) for threee years. Had her out of an egg. She was my little baby that would sit in my shirt while I cleaned. Well, I became very very ill and the doc. could not figure out what it was. He finally came to the conclusion that it was my little conure causing me to be so sick. He said that I had "A" typical Pnemonia and that all birds carry the (Something I forget what it is) and that it only effects "Some" people and that I was one of them. He told me that I needed to find a home for my Abby or I would never get better. I was terribly sick. Well, I found a loving home for her with a semi retired couple. Gave Abby away with her cage, playstand, food etc. and only asked that they love her like I did. I cried for months after and I never did get better. Turned out to be something else - Chronic Leukemia.
I would really reccomend before you give your baby up to go to a good allergist and make sure that it is really him causing it and nothing else. I'd hate to see you go through the heart ache that I went through.
Best of luck
