I have 5 and as much as I do love them...it was a bad mistake on my part. Their barking sometimes drives me absolutely insane. If it was warmer I'd stick them outside for awhile, but it's way too cold here. Plus....I'm so tired of picking up poo. Some go on the pads, others....wherever. The 3 girls do pee on the pads and I have the 2 boys in belly bands, but there are still some accidents once in a while. I'm so tired of it. If I could find homes for Emilee, Gidget and Ozzie....I would in a heart beat, but my son loves Gidget and Ozzie, husband loves Emilee. I personally would only keep Joey and Brenna.
I know that sounds terrible, but I wouldn't recommend more than 2 at the most. I also would recommend a breed without the bad habits of a Yorkie. I am in my 50's and I've never had dogs 'go' in my house or were as hard to train. Okay...now I'm ranting. I know it sounds like I don't love them at all....I do, but sure wish I knew then what I know now.
