Lexi's Mom · 01-18-2005, 03:54 PM

After convincing hubby that Lexi is alone too long during the day and gets lonely (I work 4 days/week and he works 2 weeks days/2 weeks afternoons), I finally talked him into getting her a playmate!!! Now I have to decide whether I want another Yorkie or a different breed. I am really drawn to the Bischon Frise breed. Does anyone have one as a companion to their Yorkie?

What are the pros/cons to having two Yorkies vs. one yorkie and one "other" breed?

We don't have many choices as the dog has to be under 15 lbs. and non-shedding.

Anyone?

If you have a lot of clothes or other stuff specifically for a Yorkie's size, then another Yorkie would be easier on the budget, but it just depends what you want and how your Lexi relates to other breeds too. Many members have a Yorkie along with other breeds and get along just fine.
