If this isn’t de ja vu all over again. LOL I was pretty much in your situation. I wanted a Yorkie, boyfriend ( now husband) did not. Like your BF Tom had a big breed (Massif) for 5 years or so before we got together- he never had a small dog- he did have cats but they were outside inside.

So what did I do?? I went and got that Yorkie I always wanted!! At first he told me he was going to sell him and where were the papers- blah blah- I just said “ I don’t know I can’t find them… At the time I was working 12/14 hours days and Tom ( Husband) was working 12 hours days as well, but he left way earlier than me so he got home early.. before me- I think spending those evenings alone with Peanut really did him in.

It took about… hmmm maybe like 3 weeks for Tom to get attached.

We both worked full time plus and Peanut did fine alone. You can very well work a full time job and still take care of your puppy- I did and it worked great for me.

You are the only one that knows your BF. I knew Tom well enough that once I brought that sweet Yorkie face home he would get attached- and so he did.

Peanut is 5 now, will be 6 May. He still has accidents. Not as bad as he use to LOL, but given I have his doggy door open and pee pads around the house… They are hard to train, but they are so worth it!! I would give anything for my baby- he has made me so happy. Once of the reasons I wanted him was because Tom use to ride his street bike a lot.. Like every weekend almost- so Peanut was my little buddy. To this day he is my buddy. We go shopping together, I take him down to visit my Mom, we lay in bed and lounge all day, Tom also works a lot of hours still and Peanut is always there to keep me company.

I say if you know your Bf will be forgiving and accept a Yorkie then you must have one!!
