Hi there! I have to say from experience that this can be done! We adopted (was given to us) our first Yorkie when she was five years old. Her name at the time was "Precious" and given my husband wasn't crazy about getting a little dog and that he would be home with her during the day, we changed her name to "Jessie". Sadly, unbenknownst to us, she had a heart condition when we got her and she passed last July.

, when she was only 9. Jessie was the most "precious" dog, truly an angel. She not only went EVERYWHERE with us but she became "Daddy's buddy" and "Mommy's baby". She adapted to her new name almost immediately! Because we fell in love with her we now have a 10mnth old "Willow" and 3 month old "Jake". It can be done!!
