There is a lot of great advice here. My Yorkies demand a lot of attention. They constantly let me know they are around and they are just like having two toddlers in my home. Some Yorkies take a long time to be house trained, mine took about 14 months, so that might be another consideration. Another option if you want a Yorkie (and I don't blame you because they are so adorable ), might be to look for a retired breeding Yorkie, who would be a little older, house trained, and a bit calmer than a puppy, maybe less expensive too. I know some breeders are very cautious about sending these small dogs to homes with small children though. Just a thought. I wish you the best and if you get a yorkie, please post pictures!
