I was considering getting another puppy to provide company for Tobie and plus because I just love them so much, but I am worried. Tobie for the most part is potty trained outside with an occasaional "brain fart" and he is VERY CLINGY! I'm just about to finish nursing school with my roomate, and he's crate trained when we're at school or worked and seems to do well with it, but is attached at the hip when we're at home just chilling on the couch or whatever - which I heard is pretty normal for yorkies.

Tobie was kind of a late bloomer, and is a little guy (6lbs) and I am worried that getting another yorkie will make him regress or be a bad mistake, but he absolutely LOVES his sister when I am at my dad's or they're at my house and they play for HOURS. I want Tobie to well adjusted, but don't want to make him feel left out if I consider another puppy. Also, not sure how that will work with a grown dog and a puppy.

Any insight would be a HUGE help. Thinking about it sometime in the fall.

You know that is the same reason Murfee is an only child. I don't want him to feel bad if we have to divide attention between two. Good luck in whatever you decided to do.
