Littlewhip. I have five Yorkies. I really don't have any trouble handing the five. The only real issue I have right now is that two out of the five are still babies. My Jersey is almost 9 months and Lilly is 7 months. I'm sure you know how hard it is to potty train these little brats. The three are fully potty trained but Jersey and Lilly are not 100 percent yet and give me a run for my money. My husband calls them the little s**t machines.
The only issues with five is expense. The vet expenses of owning five sometimes gets crazy. You have five to get shots for, five to have teeth cleaning done, and then you have to worry about the expense of anthing major with their health going wrong and if they are all the same age or close to it the vet bills as they get older can really rack up.
Grooming too is an expense but I'm fortunate enough that I can do it myself. Not perfectly, but nice enough to save me the $$.
I hope it works out for you.
