You've gotten some wonderful advice on here. We got our first puppy when my son was a year old and it was a nightmare. The puppy would climb on him when he was on the floor and scratch him without meaning to. It ended up making my son afraid of the dog! And, house breaking, forget it. You have to take the baby and the dog out a million times a day. I would wait until your daughter is older. She is still a baby in many ways, and doesn't understand that a little yorkie can't be handled like a stuffed animal and carried around. It wouldn't be fair to her or the dog. |
