you seem very mature and seem to be covering all of you bases(except maybe the real world vs college thing...ppl don't care what you are if they want to sue you they will even if it means breaking a verbal agreement you had previously made...GET IT IN WRITING!!! take care of yourself and give noone any chance to sue you over the dog issue)
with that being said keep on the path you are on...you are asking the right questions.you will learn alot here.I am a college student with a yorkie and I won't lie.It is like havinga baby! SERIOUSLY...some dogs are not high maintence, yorkies are...they are small and fragile and need special care.I am like you, I do not party or participate in many of the usual um"college activities" lol so it was not hard for me to devote all of my time to my dog...
consisitence is key with potty training this breed...I am OCD and VERY stubborn but even I was not able to perfectly train my 4 pound yorkie lol.I thought the same thing as you,if i was 100% devoted I could do it...I must say I have had to eat humble pie with this one...but I am pround to say bailee is about 99% potty trained 6 months later
Dont let anyone say you can not do it.If you have to the time,financial means(in bailee's 9 months of living i have spent over $900 in vet bills,which is a good amount for a college student lol)and the commitment you will be a great yorkie owner!
good luck!!!!!
