Even without deliberately scratching at it, a yorkie's claws will scratch leather furniture from repeatedly jumping on & off it over time.
I would never let my yorkie off leash to run, unless in a fenced in area. Even a well-trained yorkie may be too prey-driven to resist a squirrel or rabbit it sees. It's not a chance I'm willing to take.
My current yorkie sleeps in my bed. My last yorkie slept in a dog bed right next to mine in the winter. In the summer she prefered to sleep on the above-referenced leather furniture in the family room. I've never had one sleep in a crate at night.
