And definitely don't put them together in a crate right away, you need to make sure they get along, but even still I would never leave them alone and unsupervised in a crate even after years of being together. I heard a very sad story about how one dog killed the other after being left alone in a crate. (I'm thinking it was a post on Yorkie talk as a matter of fact) Will you be getting the new Yorkie from the same person you got your first one from?

Thanks and I think (well I am %99 sure) I am gonna go for it!
The new Yorkie is way littler than mine now and is coming with its own crate, so I will keep the seperated forever (well when it comes to crates and kennels). I think they will be just fine! I am so excited. We will be moving out soon so since we will have our own house i want to fill it up, like kids. Lol!

Right now we live in sort of an in-law apartment and convincing them of getting a second dog may not be easy, but I can prob pass it off as Buddy. HAHA! But honestly they wouldn't care. They think that a dog is good for me, since I have nee so sick, so the more the merrier! Right?
