I have 4 now and work full time. It CAN be done. With each new one I put the new one in a crate so the yorkies could smell each other without overwhelming the new one. After the other dogs go back to their normal activity I could let the new one out. I believe you can work and have dogs, but I work very hard to make sure mine are with me as much as possible. My husband and I have staggered work hours so the pups are never alone more than 5 hours. We walk in the park each day and I take one at a time to work with me. I walk with several other people with dogs so my babies are exposed to many new invironments. We have a farm so the dogs get to enjoy the country life too. I think yorkies NEED a friend...and its is very hard to stop with 1 or 2 of them! If you want another...GO FOR IT. As long as you love them and care for them..they will be fine...These are SUPER dogs.
