Anyone own just one yorkie?

[Lindsays Mama 2]

No, cuz I always had 2's. I have a chihuahua also but she is very jealous and attacks my yorkie who I only have had for a week. Mind you, yorkies have been in my life for 30 years. My vet said that after a week my chi should not still be vicious and I will either have to seperate them forever or rehome 1, hands down that would be Lindsay. She is really vicious, sometimes seet to my Tessa. My daughter Paige might take her Sunday but she is thinkining of getting a yorkie from my breeder within the year but a bigger 1. My grandsons love Lindsay and she had a rough start in life so I think she will give in and have her yorkie too. Please pray for me. I am so stressed and feel so guilty.

Kaji is a singleton also. The best part of having him and him only is always having him by my side. He goes to the grocery store, the movies, out to eat, on date night with boyfriend, and on vacation! Everyone in my family agrees, he's part of the family and can't be left behind!

I do however think of the instances when he is home alone. I wish I had a second for him to run around and play with. Then I think of how much our life would change and he wouldn't be my travel buddy anymore. I'm selfish and I want my baby boy by my side always!

We can afford everything he needs, but I don't know if we could do that if we had two babies. I do not have a fenced in yard so it would be difficult to have two in the house all the time and have to put both on a leash to go outside. Winston is only 18 months old and he requires alot of attention. He goes for two long walks everyday, weather permitting. He has never been sick at all and he totally loves being with mommy and daddy every minute. I just don't think I have the energy to handle another one. If I was younger, then maybe.

and he's going to continue to require a lot of attention for the next 14 or so years of his life!

We only have one yorkie, Jasmine, which is 1 year old. We also have a black toy poodle, Prissy, who is 7 years old. They are our sweet little girls, wouldn't know what to do with out them.

[Her Name Is Rio]

yes, Rio's an only child. My DH and I have thought about getting a boy for her playmate, but we always revert back to wanting her to stay an only child. We spoil her to pieces, she goes everywhere with us and is never left alone. My DH drops her off at my brother and sis-in-law's house in the morning before work and picks her up after work (I work full time too) so she has become such a well socialized dog. At her babysitters, my sister-in-law stays at home to watch her 2 year old grandaughter, so Rio is very good with little children. I can't see myself being able to love a second Yorkie equally, as Rio is my love and I would think it would be unfair to the second one. So for now, it's just little Rio.... but you never know what the future will bring!

I just met a guy whose grandparents single female yorkie is now reportedly 18 years old, still has all her own healthy teeth, and still acts the same as when she was little.

18 and going strong. Wow.

That's an inspiration! I can see myself sharing 18 loving years with my baby!

[Her Name Is Rio]

yes, I pray we have 18 years with our Rio! I love when I hear about yorkies that live that long!

[Armani Alexis]

Armani is my one and only and there would not be enough words to describe my joy if I had 18 wonderful years with her. She makes my heart sing!

[romeos mommy]

just 1 for me

[Yorkiegran3]

I had one forv 14 years, but he died a couple of years ago.
I now have three, why? Well when I just had one she
seemed so quiet and lonely, so I got another and they're great.
Then my daughter came to live with us and got her own. So now we have three. Ahhh!! bliss!!

Ive decided that I want a herd of yorkie's, much like the Queen has a herd of corgies. lol I would hate to breed my little Hollyhock but just to have several at one time the idea does exist.

[violet voon]

I only have Sugar. I'm very happy with just one, I can put all my attention on her, and I don't think I can handle 2 or more now. Besides...think about double the vet bills, foods, supplements etc, gosh I'm so dizzy! So I think I will just have 1 for now, but I'm not sure few years down the road, lol!
Yorkies are addictive!!

They're so lucky! Muffin was active and playful and crazy, too, up until the last few weeks of her life. The nice thing about them is that they don't act their age.

Sophie is our one and only. She gets all of our attention. We tried two but that didn't work out too well. We tried adopting another female but she had aggression issues against Sophie so my niece adopted her as a only child. Now everyone is happy again.
We'll probably just stick with one.
