I think if you develop and maintain an awesome relationship with him he will in time be able to tolerate your occasional absence and still be normal. But he will never like it. If you are single you'd both probably be happier making friends with somebody else with dogs, so sometimes at least he can have someone to hang with. I'm pretty new to yorkies, it looks to me like most people end up keeping at least two, and that makes for happy company. I'm struggling with that one myself. I can't see promising 15 years to my little friend here (unplanned yorkiehood), so I'm thinking of having his memory erased and shipping him up to Brittany and Jackson's house (

THE SEPARATION ANXIETY GOES BOTH WAYS WITH A YORKIE
If your little friend ever goes missing, you too will find yourself climbing the walls.
