I agree with another post, maybe its best you get an older dog so you don't have to worry about the hypoglycemia or that is already potty trained, although they still need/crave attention too  |

Literally! I am not ashamed to admit it...I can't go potty and close the door anymore because Elvis will follow me and scratch on the door! I read once another Yorkie owner wrote-"I thought I'd be able to go to the bathroom by myself undisturbed once my children were no longer little...then I got a Yorkie..."
Even though Elvis is my daughter's Yorkie...I would never get a dog for a child...I got dogs because I wanted them and was willing to take on all their care...luckily my kids are really into helping with "their" dogs...Yorkies are not really good with or for kids...
Note to the OP-I'm here taking a pic for you right now!
We've gone out in the yard gotten wet in the long grass, played ball, chase, came in played and then walked. I'm taking a YT break for me right...well they key board is on my lap and I have to lean over to read, Scoobers and Princess are passed out on the couch...note where Elvis my Yorkie is in the pic...please excuse my super messy (shameful messy) desk-we're remodeling and I grabbed a table out the garadge for now!
