For those who got a second yorkie.. for those who got a second yorkie or other breed dog/puppy to keep your first yorkie company and relieve boredom, did it work? |
I don't think mine are ever bored or lonely! They still need 6 times more attention than one. Well maybe not quite that much :) It does double your food and vet bills, though. |
I got my second yorkie "Bella" in November when my 1st yorkie "Louie" was 1yr. old. I had second thoughts the first week, but now I know it was the best thing I ever did. They are so adorable together and are the best of friends. They keep each other company when everyone is busy or if they have to stay at home for an hr. or two. Good luck in whatever you decide to do. :yorkiesar |
I dont think any yorkie gets bored lol.They are capable of entertaining them selfs just fine;) Mine have never really gone out of their way to play with each other,even as pups,although sometimes they will chase each other around the room for a toy.Lady sleeps most of the day and Jess prefers our cat when shes in a playful mood. |

Ditto, we brought Gizmo home in Sept 2005 and in Dec.2005 we brought Maddy home I too had second thoughts but they love each other...it's so cute to see them together Maddy follows Gizmo around like a little sister she is even though she is bigger than him and he's 6 months!!! They do get in their little squabbles sometimes but that's just nature! Good luck in whatever you decide!! :) |
I agree...Chanel got a ton of attention when she was my only child and since getting Cheri ...now I give Double the Attention but love every second of it and YES - it did give Chanel a nice buddy to play with....she didn't change at all and is still a mommies girl ....but now she has someone to do "Stuff" with and they have a blast together. |
I sometimes wonder how anyone has the energy to keep up with one yorkie. I am glad mine have each other. Especially times like right now - seems they are all in hyper mode - except Quattro has had enough and is lying in my lap. They can wear each other down, all I have to do is love on them, wash, brush,feed,water.......... |

I got Maya about 6 weeks after Deb. They love each other and keep each other company. They sleep curled up together, play together, and yes...fight with each other. They are just like my kids :) I wouldnt have it any other way!! |
I work part-time and I feel better knowing that they have each other while I am gone. I love watching them play together especially when they chase each other around the house. |
We got Sammie (maltese) because we could not keep Gracie entertained. She was very high maintenance and needed attention ALL the time. Since we got Sammie, they play all day together, in fact, she much prefers him to us anymore. If they are separated for any reason and for any amount of time, they cry for eachother. Cute. |
did it the other way around Bailey, my precious havanese of 16 months, needed a playmate and a companion. So we introduced Dayzee into our lives 8 weeks ago. There are so many similarities between the Yorkie and Havanese. Since they are 11 months apart in age, almost the same size now, I feel like the "parent" as I compare Dayzee's progress to Bailey's...i.e., learning commands, house breaking, etc. If I had to make the decision again, I would do the same thing. They play together so well and Dayzee is just a cuddler. I'm in love with my puppys...and my husband knows too. |
Okay, now I have a question. I've never had 2 Yorkies, but I have had 3 dogs at one time. Don't you find that having more than one means ALOT more noise??? |
Chachi and Jewels keep each other company but they are both a little independent too. They never curl up and lay together. There is twice the noise though. |
IMO I think that having 2 of them is easier than having just 1 bc you dont have to keep them entertained as much bc they entertain themselves. |
