Many people work and have yorkies. I think when its a younger pup would worry me being gone for 8 hours though because of the possibility of hypoglycemia especially if you get a pup before 12 weeks. You might want to get two so when you are at work they have each other instead of being all alone. Before getting a yorkie I would also make sure your finances are good because puppy wellness visits, items they need, and shots can be expensive. Yorkies can also need more vet care then say a bigger dog because there is not a lot to play with they are so small if she stop eating and lose even a pound it can be bad as well as things can effect them more then bigger dogs. Small dogs can go down hill very fast if they don't get the proper vet care. My experience with yorkies is they are very smart but do require more human interaction then any other dogs I have had.
