I taught preschool for over 20 years, and Yes, I lived in the bay area too.. I did not have any puppies or small dogs back then. I waited. Now i am at home virtually all the time. If I was still working full time I would want a yorkie baby to be at least 6 months . I think it is easier on the yorkie baby to be a little older when left alone. I brought home a playmate when My yorkie was a year old. They have been a great match together. It is just really hard to leave a very young, very small yorkie puppy alone. Yes, these little bundles of joy are easily compared to human babies. They need a lot of TLC, and somone watching over them, making sure they eat enough and are safe. Some are too small to even jump on the couch . If you do work full time and are going to get a new yorkie puppy , then their is so much more to be concerned with. If you have a friend or family member to come in a few times when you are away to make sure your puppy is fine and give your puppy human contact then that should be ok. Place the puppy in a Ex pen Do not let the puppy have free rein over your place. She or he will be too young, and this could be dangerous.
