Debbie is kept gated in the kitchen but only because we have an alarm that she would set off if left loose. I think she sleeps the whole time she's alone. She's got food, water and a pad in there. I don't leave toys cause she doesn't play with them. Sometimes I think she's happy for the peace and quiet.
The pen is a good idea, but be careful. Sometimes they can climb over using the mesh or little bars. I'd hate for your yorkie to fall off the top of the pen.
I don't think anyone would fault you for leaving your yorkie. After all not all of us can afford to stay home all day. We do need to earn a living! |
