Hi everyone! Okay, we have Maci who will be 3yrs old this year. We love her to death, and she is such a spoiled girl!! We're thinking of possibly getting another yorkie puppy? Is that a good idea?

We've heard that sometimes it can be difficult, for Maci in this case, because she's an "only child" and bringing another puppy into the house might cause behavior problems. Can anyone comment on this? We would really hate to upset Maci at all; however, I think she might enjoy having a playmate.

Also, we're kind of undecided at this point wheter to get another female or to get a male this time. Is there really any pros or cons? Maci is spayed, and if we got another puppy they would get fixed as well.

Any thoughts that all of you have would be great! Thanks!
