Hello all,

I have been here on the boards and the 'Net for quite some time researching the breed before my purchase, but I'm running into a problem. I've looked into the option of adoption and I'm finding that they won't allow you to adopt if you have children under 10 (I have a son, 8, and a daughter, 4). I also saw where some breeders won't let you purchase if you have young children. I did see some info on Yorkies and small children, but I'd like to hear from actual owners. Should I wait until my kids are older or is it possible to raise a furbaby and two non-furbabies together?

Any advice is welcomed!
