the stairs idea is ok if the yorkie doesn't accidentally fall off the bed. which milu has a couple of times when she slept too close to the edge or when i was playing with her on the bed (another bad idea!)

milu only tried to jump off of the bed once, and she squeaked when she hit the floor...poor baby

i would say if your bed is not too high off the ground. then it's safe (like if you just have the mattress on the floor :p ) otherwise i wouldn't do it since i think you said your yorkie is also a tiny one.

oh, plus, milu did pee on the bed when she wasn't potty trained yet. but of course that's again my fault for letting her on the bed in the first place.
