LOL Kids, What would our little fur butts do without them! I always say why should a Yorkie be denyed the love of a child just because of their size .

But Milo has always expressed the nicest behavior and is INCREDIBLY patient with her, in fact, I call him her partner in crime. He is always around when she is doing something wrong. She stole a box of candy, found them both, wrappers all over the place, he is chewing on the box, her with chocolate on her face, another time she didn't want her cereal, commenced to flush it down the toilet, found her scraping it into toilet, he is licking milk and flying chunks of cereal off of toilet seat, another time, she is wetting toilet paper, making soggy balls, and he is pulling the paper roll all across the bathroom floor... I try not to laugh, but they are truly a terror TOGETHER!!! They also enjoy coordinated take downs, she goes for your waist and he goes for your shoes or pants leg, she literally is his bonnie and he's her clyde.
The only time he has ever gotten snappy with her is when he has been given a rarely given special treat, and she has to be told to give him his space, but these again are rare instances. In my case, a yorkie and a young kid can coexist happily in same environment.
