I have to agree with the other posters. I fostered a little girl who was a very scared yorkie. Jittery and always tried to run away. She was surrendered from a family with three young children. I found a huge scar by her shoulder blade. It was all healed up but scar tissue very thick and no hair grew back. I asked about it and got the "oh I never knew about that...." I think the children had an accident and that's why the poor girl was so scared. Also she was barely 4 lbs. But saying all that, a bigger yorkie could work. The hard part will be getting your application to stand out and have the interviewer want to call you and let you tell your side of the story, how good your kids are etc.
