I agree with points made above. Top considerations:

1) Money for vet bills. Even healthy dogs can rack up big bills for vaccinations, exams, heartworm and flea and tick preventatives. What happens if your Yorkie happens to have a liver shunt or other congenital problem? These problems cost anywhere from $1500 to thousands more.

2) Potty training: the first year is the most intense and potty training often frustrates people with puppies.

3) Yorkies do like company. How much time each day will your pup be alone?

I think it is great that you are being thoughtful about this.
