I did't want one. I wanted a second dog for my boxer to play with, something that was big enough for him to play with but small enough for my to pick up and cuddle. I also wanted a dog that didn't shed much. I liked the look of a yorkie but thought they are way to small to be around an 80 boxer full of energy and three young children. I decided I wanted a silky terrier, a large one, or a sky terrier. Hubby couldn't find either of those but can across a breeder with a big boy yorkie puppy. I was scared at first because he seemed so small. At 10.5 lbs he still seems small to me, but fits into our family perfectly. I guess it is true that once you go yorkie you will always have one.
