Yorkshire terriers are wonderful dogs, but they ARE terriers. Terriers were bred to chase vermin (rats, mice, maybe snakes) They are VERY stubborn little creatures. They are hard to train and notorious to housetrain. Terriers, along with every other breed group, need lots of socialization. Do you know lots of races of people? Do you know people in wheelchairs, on crutches? You need to get your dog socialized to these people. Terriers also need LOTS of excesize. That means you need to get him a harness and walk him before school, and after school, and maybe around dinner, and just before bed. Yorkies, contrary to popular belief, are not fashion accessories to be carried around in your new gucci bag. Also, a properly bred yorkie should be 5-7 lbs. Do not buy a "teacup" yorkie, or one that is four pounds or less. A "teacup" yorkie, or a "teacup" any breed is not a "super cute special breed" it is an unhealthy mutant. What will you do with the dog when you go off to college? I don't mean to sound mean, I really don't I just want you to know the realities.

Yorkie's are one of the hardest dogs to take care of. They are in the terrier family, all terriers are the hardest to maintain. I have a maltese myself and he's alot of work. Since their small they can be trained to go to the bathroom in a litter box or on a special doggy pad. But you have to train them when their young.
They have to be groomed often, unless you want their hair to grow out, to the group like show yorkie dogs are. They have to be brushed no less then one time a week, bathed every one-two monthes or so. They like attention. Hope i helped. And for a boy dog's name i've always wanted to name them pepper. That would work for you because yorkies have brown and black hair. Oh and if you get a tea cup yorkie they can get sick very easily. Sorry i rambled one.
