Default For those who own 3 Yorkie Babies...

How is it living with 3 yorkie dogs/pups? I'm debating on getting another one because i've been wanting to get another puppy so bad.

i've looked at my local shelters and all the ones they have are big big dogs (like german shepards, chowchows, poodled, pit bulls)..

My main concern is. i take care of them during the day because at night i work (11pm-7am) When i get home i give them food, change their wee-wee pad, and then sleep from 7am -1pm. then from 1pm i play with them and all that stuff..

my only concern is, is 3 a crowd? Oreo is very friendly, Ginger is also friendly, they are both 6 months old. would it be too late to bring in a puppy? (8weeks). they used to play with my 6 month old Pomeranian Roxie and enjoyed her company, although Roxie was HUMONGOUS compared to them and she'd always beat them up lol..

if i do decide to get another one, do you think i should get a boy or a girl? (if i get a boy it would be 2 boys and a girl... or should i get a girl.. it would be 1 boy and 2 girls)... do you know how possessive each sex is? is one more possessive over the other? gaaah i don't know but i want one so bad.. i just want to know the pro's and con's...

i know a few of the bads that i'm willing to work with.
- more poop/pee to clean up after
- more yapping
- more toys to buy
- I'll have to fit two in a carrier (not that i don't already) and hold the other one.

some pros-
- if it's a girl, Ginger and Her will share clothes,
- While i play with one, the other two can play and I can switch off
- i'll finally be satisfied with my other puppy.. lol


ahhh what is a girl like me to do? i have to also think about vaccinations. which oreo and ginger need their rabies shots. (which i'm hoping is next month).. and for the new on i think he/she just needs last 2 sets of shots + rabies. sooo what do you guys think? should i do it?

im trying to put myself in a budget to pretend if i did have another yorkie, i could handle it with all my bills and all. but it's my boyfriend who takes care of my furbabies when i'm sleeping or at work, soo i don't know if it'll be too much of a handful, and i wonder how he'll adapt.

also what other things would i need to buy if i do decide to add to the family? sorry so long.. but i just really want to be prepared this time around.
