I would say stay away from Yorkie's. I have a 6 month old Yorkie "Molly" and she is a pistol. We spend hours throwing her squeaky toy and playing with her. She's a good little girl dog, just a little hyper. We also keep her in a puppy cut, so she doesn't require as much grooming.

I'd also say rescue a dog, too. They can be wonderful pets. My mixed breed Carly is a wonderful dog. Family and friends keep trying to bargain with us to let them take her home. She is a treasure.
