Confused Choose an easier Breed?

I suggest you pick another Breed, only b/c Yorkie's can be very difficult in many ways. They are very high maintenance in every way, as far as Training, personality, disposition etc. As cute and lovable, sweet, affectionate, loyal. They can be a Nightmare if you don't stay on them constantly. My female Abigail is almost 2 yrs. old and still has "Accidents" in the house, regardless of the circumstances. I have 2 a male and a female and they are as different as night & day! Not to mention the Vet. bill, you could get one with perfect health or you could get one that has you at the Vet. @ least once a month for any reason? Unless you have alot of time and energy to figure them out?
I'm not trying to discourage you b/c I think they are the best Breed I ever had, I have been a "Dog Person" all of my 43 yr. old life, either you are or you aren't meaning some people just like Yorkie's b/c of all the Media attention.
I can't tell you how many times I've been @ the Mall and all the teenage girls flock & scream "Oh I want one"! Not to mention they are expensive, I hear hard luck stories all the time how they can't pay that much, but you get what you pay for? It's alot to think about, but unfortunately not everyone can handle all the responsibilities and if more people did their research based on facts not that adorable licking machine w/a cute bow in his hair? An hour later he will be in the backyard rolling on his back in cat pee? I'm sure you'll throw caution to the wind and get one anyway they are very tempting, Good Luck!
