Default Yorkie and Other dogs

Hi I'm getting a yorkie puppy for myself but also considering to get a bigger dog (old English shepherd dog or wheaten terrier) for my son who is 2.5 and absolutely crazy about dogs (he's happier to play fetch with dogs in the park than playing with other children on the playground).
Given the size the yorkie puppy, I was wondering whether I should wait until my yorkie is fully grown and then get the other dog? Or perhaps get them at the same time? How do yorkies generally do with bigger dogs?

Please don't comment on how I shouldn't get a yorkie with a young child. We had a yorkie when my son was born (unfortunately my yorkie passed away a month ago at 16). My son is extremely gentle with dogs and was taught not grab or pick my yorkie up. In any case I never leave my dogs and my child unsupervised.
