Most dogs have an undercoat that keeps them warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, depending how they "shift" this under hair. Yorkies have a single hair with no insulating properties, so if you're cold, they are cold.
I have a "snugglesafe" and is was a great investment! it stays warm all night! I also have a heating mat, that has a chew-proof cord and a fuzzy cover. I use that when I have a litter of puppies.
