Well, my first thought is to get a new boyfriend, lol. I'm sorry, I'm just don't believe in a woman having to ask her partner's permission. He's your mate, not your dad!
Anyhoo, that aside. You definitely need to have a heart to heart with him about what you want. It does make it much easier if you're both on the same page.
Research everything you can about Yorkies while you are searching for your perfect pup. Start putting money back NOW. You can plan to spend around $1500 in the first year, and that's on top of the cost of your pup. Vet visits, vaccinations, insurance, food, grooming, spay/neuter; and these are just costs you can budget for. Illness or injury is another story altogether. And then there's the supplies - harnesses, leashes, bed, crate and or ex pen, and on and on.
What others have said is spot on. Consider your lifestyle and how well a tiny pup will fit in. Can you and are you willing to make concessions for a little one? Are you ready for a 15-20 year commitment?
Good luck with the BF!
