How did you justify the cost of adding her or children to your life? I am only half kidding...LOL...because Yorkies are more child like than dog like. Yes, they will lick their own privates and eat poop, bark at unknown people and sounds, but...and this may sound wrong but is true...Yorkies have the ability to amass huge vocabularies, and they understand the meanings of the words. Yorkies are bred to 'work alone' when hunting rats, so they were bred to be able to think on their feet, change tactics, and make adjustments in their actions without human intervention. This is not to say they are untrainable...just that their intelligence rivals humans in many ways.
For example, my Yorkies want to see whatever I have, they listen attentatively to my explanation of what they are looking at, and recognize it again. Brody knows every toy...by name.
If you decide to get a Yorkie, you will have the great honor of serving one of the finest breeds of dogs...errr...family members. LOL
My hubby had large dogs...sled dogs (Alaska)...and never had small dogs until we got Brody at 14 months old in May, 2011. He now believes Yorkies are 'the perfect dog' because they are so smart, personable, devoted, loving, communicative...they are where we are, because they want to be wherever we are. Maybe you are starting to see what I mean...LOL
My opinion, but I love Yorkies!!!
