| Opinions needed about getting another Yorkie! I have a male yorkie that is now 8 1/2 months old. BTW, we also have 3 cats. My husband and I are thinking about getting another dog. We recently saw that the breeder where we got our first yorkie has more yorkies, for $600/OBO. They will be on the bigger side of 8-10 pounds, which is why they are cheaper. We are fighting with having 3 cats and 2 dogs. That's a lot, but we really would like to get our dog a friend, and if so, better now than when he's older. I need some opinions. What do you think? Thanks, Maryann |

| It sounds like youve got your hands full but if you have the time and the money for another I say go for it

| I would have 2 more, but I have to keep in mind vet bills, dressing them, spoiling them, room in the bed for 2 more, when Jack and I go somewhere 4 instead of 2. I am sure you will make the right desicion. Good Luck.

| Getting our second Yorkie was the best thing we could have done for us, our first Yorkie, and of course our second Yorkie. The two girls are first cousins and have such a strong bond between them. Now when I can't take them, they are ok with that because they are not alone or lonely. |

| We just got our 3rd Yorkie - which now makes it 4 Yorkies (includes my daughter's pup Madden), 1 Akita/German Shepherd, and 2 cats (plus 3 teenagers). Thank goodness I have my human family to help me with them all - I have to be honest, it's ALOT of work!! And the work comes mostly from the Yorkies!!

My Lil Man! Donating Member | If you know you can afford and provide for another baby plus not neglect any of your pets, then I say go for it! I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, and 5 fish. Which with me being down here in Auburn only the fish and my yorkie came with me. I left the rest with my parents to take of cause they have much more room for them to run and play and everything than my lil ol apartment. Lol. Good luck with the decision! |

| Wow I must be exhausted today because I racked my brain trying to think of what they could stand for and well duh and the sad thing is I should have known that, we learned those abbreviation things in one of my journalism editing classes. Thanks for clearing that up for me! |
