Since you are somewhat fearful, have you considered a slightly more laid-back dog? Like someone else mentioned, I'm thinking you might also consider a maltese.
They are small, some just as small as a yorkie (mine was larger) and a good deal more laid back.
That said, I love my Lucy and think she is perfect for me. |
Ellie has helped a friend get over her dislike of dogs as pets, but I wouldn't say she makes people less fearful. She can be really sweet sometimes and sometimes she will growl and even snap. I personally wouldn't recommend a terrier right now unless maybe you get an adult and know their personality.
