These little guys are like toddlers that never grow up and move out. Think of it as always having a 3 yr old child around for 15 yrs  .
Have you thought about a adopting a yorkie? There are plenty of yorkies that are waiting for there forever home. My little one was 7 yrs old when I adopted her from a backyard breeder. She is now 11 and the absolute best thing that has ever happened to me.  |
And yes, make sure he/she is insured from day one!
Also, you say you want a family pet - how old are the youngest members? Tiny children + tiny Yorkies are not necessarily the best mix....Sally + Harry x
