Is a yorkie the best dog for me?

Hi. So I'm 16 and I'm thinking about getting a yorkie. There are a lot of reasons why a yorkie would work best in my house. I've researched them a bit, and I really want to buy one. But before I really go and get one I want to know if they are easy to house train, or if there are any problems with them. I need a small dog because we just built our house so my dad doesn't want a big dog. so this is about my last resort. Any tips or info even on a better dog I could get??

Hello, I am a Veterinary Technician, and I hope I can help.

Any Dog is easy to be housetrained. Yorkies are no diffrent, accept a little hyper, but dogs vary from personality. I think a Yorkie would be great for you. Housetraining is pretty much a given, it is not so hard. Treat it like a child.

From what I read, it's the #2 dog of 07 - Here's more info:

Good luck !!
