1. Would there be a possibility that someone could take him if you did?
I leave mine in the house..He is a mix and bigger than full Yorkies and I dont think I would leave him out. Something just kinda scarey about that to me. Now I have 7 other dogs that I DO leave outside...But not this one...Just my feeling...
I applaude you for asking questions before getting your Yorkie. Mine just came to me and I had no intentions of getting another dog..but ...here we go.
