Its possible. I had a rottweiller and my yorkies and they all got a long fine. Actually my rottweiller took on the yorkie's characteristics. he thought he was a yorkie. they all played together and laid together with no problem at all.

I would tell you when you get the rottie puppy make sure you introduce them on "nural territory". I have a 12 yr old rottie where i live and he is TERRIFIED of Fiona, however, I don't trust him (rottie) cuz he has tried to bite me before, so I dont let Fiona get too close! But, I'm sure if you get the rottie as a pup they should be fine, just dont let him rough house with the yorkie, so he knows!!!!!

The breeder I got my first yorkie from also had 3 giant rottweillers. They all got along just find with the Yorkies. My biggest concern would just be accidents happening. Over the years I have hear of several instances of small dogs getting killed accidentally while playing with a bigger dog. With proper supervision I am sure it could work.
