I've mentioned before on other posts that my boyfriend (well, his mom) has two maltese female littermates. They're lazy jerks that hate Stewie and growl and snap at him even if he's minding his own business across the room. They're two or three years old and steal his toys and food. Whenever he tries to go on his pee pad @ their house they bother him so he won't go. Sorry that this turned into a rant.
Although I think these girls may be bad examplles, I prefer Yorkies because of their terrier personality; they're more active and inquisitive and definitely more affectionate. Stewie loves all other dogs. It may get him into trouble one day, but I'd rather supervise his play than worry about him biting and snapping at any dog his comes across.
Again, this is just the opinion I have formed based on my experience with both breeds.
