My yorkie Rocky came in when she was about 3 years old and although he wanted to play and be friends, I think she only tolerated him. They coexisted for 11 years but I can't say they were best buddies. Sometimes she would give him the evil eye and he would go beserk! I think he was too hyper for her and that he annoyed her. She was definitely the alpha. I really miss her and can honestly say that she was much easier in training and personality than he has ever been although I loved them both. I know if I can't find an older dog that a poodle might be easier as a puppy than another yorkie - she was so smart she practically trained herself. On the other hand, he is the cuddle bunny - what to do??? Hopefully a yorkie poo!! Because I work I am not having much luck with a rescue dog but perhaps eventually the right dog will come along if it's meant to be.
