I have a little boy Yorkie(1 yr) and a female maltese(4 yrs).......two of the most beautiful breeds out there in the small dog world. My husband and I prefer females but for some reason when we went to see the little yorkie boy, he was just too much to resist trying a boy.....but he's great. He's so sweet and the only problem? We are keeping him in full coat and so I have to wipe his wee wee area to keep the smell from becoming overbearing. A bit of a pain but then because both are hairy critters, I wipe eight paws off in the morning after their morning outing.......so what's one more wipe! (lol)
