I think you're a Yorkie person but I'll admit from my experience, Yorkshire Terriers usually are a bit nervous around small children who seem so unpredictable to them, but so are tiny Poodles and Poms, Chihuahuas, Griffons, Pekes, etc. Toy dogs seem to sense their tiny bodies are at the total whim of any small child living around them and usually keep their distance unless they know and trust the child never to hurt them. Even total ham, attention-hog Tibbe, so eager for all the attention and socialization he could get, was a bit wary of little kiddos, although if they approached him, he turned to a jelly rather than getting tense, then moved away from the child first chance he got, haha. Still, I wouldn't like to trust any of the Yorkies or other fragile toy dogs I've had around a toddler, under a 5 or 6 yr. old child.
