Sorry for all the questions, but my husband and I just started working days, and we just had our first snowfall this fall, and I am just a worrywart!

I apprecitate all your replies!

I did a poll recently on how many hours yorkie owners leave their pets alone, and most of them fell in the 1-to-4-hour range. You might check out some of the comments.

Good luck. I feel for you. I'm in the same boat for a couple months. We've arranged for people to let him out if he's ever alone for 4 hours. It's a lot of work, but it's been possible.
