Hi, Hope it's all right to be here, we don't have a Yorkie, but have been looking into the breed. Dogs are such a long term commitment, that I wanted to make sure, we are making the right choice for us and for the dog.

We've always had GSDs and Border collies, I used to do a lot of obedience training. Health issues, limit what I can do these days. At the moment we have two old dogs, a border collie and black lab. The black lab has health issues, the vet says due to the dogs age wouldn't be fair to operate, so we are just keeping an eye on him, till tells us he's had enough.

For sometime, I've been wanting a smaller dog, for companionship. Being home bound, my husband walks the dogs and would walk any new addition(assuming we decide it right to go ahead, with getting a yorkie). I'd do the house training and care taking. It might be some time before, we add a new dog, as we are moving in few month, then it's Christmas and we'd want to add a dog, when things are settled. So I'm here, to learn and hear about your dogs. Sorry this turned out so rambling and long.
