I have had two yorkies. My first beloved baby Stormy was not a barker at all! She was very laid back and calm. She would only bark if someone knocked on the door. She never whined or growled either.
My new baby Lola, is a barker! She is extremely friendly and hyper and will bark at almost anything. She is 10 months old. Stormy was 1.5 years old when I got her.
It depends on the dog and the energy for sure! My mom has a year old yorkie who is a big barker too.
If you aren't picky about a certain age I'd recommend getting a yorkie who is a little older, around 1 year old so you will know for sure if they are a barker or not. So sorry to hear about your baby.
