I was 15 when we got Lacey. So, I was older. Sometimes I baby-sat for my little cousins though. I felt like I always had to pick my 4-pound yorkie Lacey in another room. I was so protective over her. Lacey did not like kids at all. She was not brought into a house with small children. I was 15 (almost 16) and my brother was 13. So, we both knew how to take care of our yorkie and be extra careful around her. Lacey would always hide behind the couch whenever a child did enter the home. She would not come out until they left. I would be scared to have a any child under the age of at least 13 in my home if I have a yorkie. Because you can't watch your child every second of the day and accidents can happen. And with a breed as small and delicate as a yorkie, these results can be deadly.
