I agree with Brittany that 10 -12 hours a day, 5 days a week, is something to be concerned about. The dogs will have the company of one another, but are you prepared after a long day of work to give the dogs attention/physical activity when you arrive home?

Many dogs, even when they are paired in a home, will sleep when their humans are away. When the humans arrive home, the dogs are full of energy and ready to go, go, go. Most dogs are not going to want to snuggle on the couch at that point.

Yorkies tend to be high energy and most of them need a lot of exercise and stimulation (outings outdoors). I think many people have the impression that smaller dogs do not need much exercise.

I am very happy to hear that you are thinking about their potty needs because 10 -12 hours is far too long not to have a potty break.

Best wishes in making your decision.
