First wanted to say hello...I'm also in Maryland...Southern Maryland....

I have 3 yorkies. I live in a townhome, no fence. I take them on 3 to 4 walks a day. Once in the morning b4 I leave for work, again when I get home from work and the last time before bedtime(I'm a night owl so it's usually anywhere from 9PM to 10:30PM). Sometimes they get an extra walk on the weekends in the evenings. Other times, I may just go out front for extra play time, throwing the ball or a toy around or we'll just sit around on the porch if it's a nice day. They also have eachother to play with in the house and me and my 2 sons will play with them throughout the day in the house as well. They have their own toy basket they can reach so they'll go get toys whenever they want(of course there's toys all over too)! lol

I'm thinking at least 2 walks a day is good or playing fetch or something with them a few times would be sufficient. I know I probably do more than they need but they enjoy it and as long as I have the time, I like doing it for them. I know Yorkies aren't known to need extensive amounts of exercise though.

Oh and as far as the length of time, our walks can be anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes. Shorter of course on colder or not so nice days...
