Yorkies do like companionship. They tend to prefer not be alone, and they like to keep busy.

Like all terriers, Yorkies are active and need exercise and mental stimulation. I think some people make the mistake of thinking small = not much exercise necessary.

I would pin down exactly how much time per day you think you can devote to your dog.

Remember, your dog, no matter what breed, likes to have a life too. It isn't a matter of treating a dog like a pet vs treating a pet like a baby.
