I have 4 dogs and they are all high maintenance in different ways. In fact our Yorkie is the easiest. We have a Shihtzu who is way more maintenance than our Yorkie. One of our dogs is a mix breed about 35lbs and way more maintenance than any of our smaller dogs. If you leave him alone too long he will do way more destruction than our Yorkie would ever do. All their personalities are different and they have different needs. One thing they all have in common is they need a consistent routine every day. All 4 of mine have worked well with crate training and feeding schedules.
