So in my opinion it depends on the personality of the yorkie. Some are very tolerant and some are not.
If you are interested in getting a puppy I'd wait another year or so for your grandson to get a little bigger. In the meantime I'd take him around friends dogs (who are tolerant of children) and teach him to be "nice" with the doggies. a lot of toddlers don't understand petting. They like to pat instead and little dogs usually don't like this. |
Or they like to grab hold of their muzzle hair.
Poor Kacee!
Kacee doesn't bite, but she gave that warning woof and growl.
