The other story I have is my girlfriend was working in her garden with her 6mo old puppy(this one was a doxy) and an eagle swooped down and took off with her dog.....true story....
The point is it is not safe and yorkies are small.
Try an xpen, but first have a serious talk with your wife about the puppy.
I would also invest in a steam cleaner...you will need that regardless of how closely you watch your dog.

I was sitting here reading this, and thought about the same thing. No one ever mentioned that the pup could fall off the balcony and be killed. I have a similar story. One of my boyfriend's friends had two yorkies at one point. Their owner let them out to go potty, and down swooped an owl and attacked and killed their puppy. I never leave my pup outside if he can't be watched - there are too many ways that they can get hurt or even killed.

I'm glad your wife will "allow" you to keep the puppy in an x-pen now. I hope you and your daughter are able to provide the little guy all the love he deserves.
