My fiancé wasn't keen on us getting a dog when I first suggested it, I grew up with a yorkie as a family pet and always wanted to have my own (they are fab dogs). I eventually convinced my partner to go and look at a puppy(after finding the right breeder) and what I thought would happen did.....as soon as he saw the puppy he was hooked! And that puppy turned into our Riley

he loves Riley as much as me and he even says getting Riley was the best decision we made! We're both 30 and don't have any children as of yet (careers came first)and it was the right time to get a dog. We both work and Riley is normally on his own about four - five hours a day during the week, he is fine with this length of time. I miss him so much when I'm at work so when I get home he is showered with love from me and my partner! H has become our baby
I would definitely recommend a yorkie as a dog
