Having had the pleasure of having an Airedale in the family, I would say they are the closest you can get to having a HUGE Yorkie. Our Tara was 85 pounds of fun and had a lot in common with my Yorkies. She stayed a puppy all of her life.

Although a really small Yorkie would not suit my lifestyle, I still have an appreciation for the smaller ones.
