I waited until my children were grown before I got my yorkies. Now, I have two yorkies and two grandchildren, who are 3 and 5. I never leave my yorkies unattended with them when they are here. Children are just too young to understand how small and fragile some of these little dogs are.
If you are determined to get a yorkie puppy, maybe one on the larger side would be a better idea to have around children. Some yorkies don't get along with children and some do. |
