You seem to have all your bases covered. I'm sure if you do get a little Yorkie, it will have a wonderful life with you. Yorkies are wonderful loving little fur kids.
There has been a lot of concern about your schedule. A Yorkie will adapt. I am a long haul trucker with about the most erratic sschedule you can imagine and my two Yorkies and my Lhasa Apso do just fine. There are hundreds of Yorkies that are companions for truckers. The only time you need to be rigid about a schedule is if, God Forbid, your baby has to be on medication. The key to the erratic schedule is to always make your Yorkie feel secure and that is achieved through patience and love. You will figure out what your little one's needs are and meet them. For example, my Lhasa and my little Yorkie male are satisfied if I just tell them I am going to be gone and what I am going to do. My little female Yorkie requires a good bye kiss and a hello kiss in addition to being told what I am doing. She cries and works herself into a state without the extra bit of attention. It doesn't matter if I am gone 2 minutes to open the trailer doors or 4 hours on a dock counting freight she has to have her kisses.
Good Luck and enjoy your little one.
