Welcome to YT!!!!

It is good that the dog is older..... but your little girl will have to learn "doggie etiquette". Just make sure that she doesn't pick the dog up OR push it off from anything. A fall can be fatal for a Yorkie.
Once you establish the "rules" it should be fine.
I have SIX grandchildren.... !!!!!
