A mix won't help because you don't get a perfect half and half type of blend with a mix, it might be just as needy as a Yorkie. I do think Yorkies are needier in their early years, and maybe an older dog might be an option. It really takes time and dedication to train a Yorkie and many older dogs are trained or fairly easy to train in a new environment. I will say, if you decide to do this, be prepared, it’s a minimum 12 year commitment and if you’re lucky 16 years. While you need not treat it like a baby, it’s important to make a lifelong commitment and treat it like a family member. |
