I had my heart set on a girl, but my bf (who bought Harley) really wanted a boy. Seeing he was paying for my dog, I opted for the boy, just because it was the only request Matt had put in. My heart sank a bit when I told Shauna I wanted to boy, but the second I help him, it all changed. He was mine. We talked for a few hours about the differences of boys and girls, and I started feeling a lot better about my decision.

Boys don't have heats, which I liked. while I was planning on having either one fixed, I didn't want to risk having a heat with a girl, before she was spayed. Boys are also known to be easier to train, my breeder said most of her girls were all extra smart and stubborn (which with Yorkies being a "harder" breed to train, made me lean towards the boy). I just find him very easy going, he loves everyone and is really smart, but not super stubborn which makes him decent to train.

The only downside was not being able to buy cute pink stuff, that and I think everyone who approaches us in the street asks my little girls name. which is annoying, but I keep his hair long, so I understand why people are mistaken.

So overall I wouldn't trade him for the world. I really, really wanted a girl, but Harley has been the best thing that ever happened to me.

Good luck either way, I hope you find a good breeder, that makes a world of difference, and is almost more important than the gender you get, they'll just be a more healthier dog that way. I also recommend that a good breeder almost always has a waiting list, if there are puppies waiting around then it may not be a good sign. So it may be a good idea if you're set on a girl to find a breeder elsewhere, and get on their waiting list. (the last part is just my opinion, the breeder I use almost always waits to have all the dogs sold, before even breeding the dogs, that way she knows exactly where each pup is going before hand, mind you she is so wonderful, she always has a waiting list going).

Sorry for my ramble. Good luck. keep us posted.
