If you are going to get a second dog, it would be best to get one that is a similar size to your yorkie. Just imagine a golden puppy pouncing on your yorkie... That is scary to me and I would not want to live in fear. JMO

For me, yes.

If I get a second yorkie, I would be concerned about how Tatiana would feel. I love her so much. I'm worried she may get jealous, or worse yet, be bullied by the new yorkie. Tatiana is very small.

They only way I would get two yorkies is perhaps when Tatiana passes away, I would get TWO yorkie puppies from the SAME litter. That way, they would most likely get along, and get to grow up with each other. Incidentally, I had two cats this way, and they loved each other SO much.

Hey, don't hate on Goldens. Shadow, my past golden was my first dog. I got him when I was 9yrs old for xmas (I'm 21 now) The breed holds a very special place in my heart, and I miss Shadow every day...even though it's been over a year since he was put down. Yes, they do shed A LOT haha. You brush them, and get a bag or 2 full of hair :p

Oh yeah, that is a concern of mine too. Zoey was only 2.5lbs when I brought her home, and she did perfectly fine with Shadow, who happened to weigh 125lbs. Yes, he was a very big golden, but in good shape according to our vet. But, that is besides the point. I do agree with you, though. Golden's are very energetic puppies, and one might pounce on Zoey. Zoey isn't too "small". Her weight fluctuates between 9.5lbs-10lbs.

It's hard to say.... I go back and forth a lot. Jackson is almost 5. And lives a very good life. I think he would ultimately love a brother or sister (if it was the right dog) but it also is just... very easy with one with my current lifestyle. I enjoy bringing him places, on vacation, we travel back and forth a lot between houses, I am single, etc.

I also think I'd like a bigger dog again someday, and out of most of the bigger dog breeds, a Golden is one I'd consider again. Most I meet are just great with small dogs, and if you teach them the proper way to play from the time they're a pup, you shouldn't have any major issues. Jackson likes big dogs, respectful big dogs, but he also gets along better with big breeds that he grew up with from the time they were a pup. Because they learn the proper way to play from the start. With that said, he just doesn't "play" with a big dog the same way he does with a dog his size. And I think while he'd enjoy the company of a bigger dog, he'd prefer a dog similar in size.

So really you just have to take into account your dog, and her play style, and what you think she would enjoy best. And if you are financially capable of owning 2 dogs, go for it.

I already have 2 dogs..Zoey, and Juke (jack russell) we had 3. Zoey, Juke and Shadow. We are animal lovers. We have 2 dogs, a cat, a rabbit, and a fish. But perhaps it would be best to stick with the smaller breeds, such as Yorkie. They take up less space (not that we don't have the space)

no, one yorkie is not enough/ I am going to get morgan either a brother or sister next summer
