May I ask if there is any possiblity that you could have a dog sitter/walker come to your home, at least once a day, while you and your fiance are working long hours? A good workout/walk, or playtime during the day will help to work out anxiety and perhaps help your Yorkie rest better at night.

It is quite possible that your Yorkie is depressed. Separation anxiety can be devastating for an animal that is accustomed to being in the company of their people/family/pack and then left alone. My DIL is a veterinarian and this is more common than most realize, especially in small dogs like Pom's and Yorkies. They even have meds for that.

It appears that you have more than enough responsibility, but maybe if your Yorkie had a friend, she wouldn't feel so alone ... just a thought.

Good luck, congrats on your new home and please don't let this frustrate you to the point of anything physicial even if ever so simple.
