I got a yorkie for college graduation from my boyfriend, and after having him for about 3 weeks I am not able to spend time with him like I need to

So, I need to do what is best for him and make sure he gets a home where he can get the attention he needs. I Love my dog dearly but I want the best for him. I have to leave him in my one bedroom apt alone for up to 8 hrs and that is not right. He is 11 wks old, healthy, has all up to date shots and will be going back to the vet for his last set within the next week. If you know someone that is loving, caring, and would like to buy a AKC yorkie male for a negotiatable price, please pm me. I am not a breeder but I have my dogs registration. Thank you

Is there anyway you can find someone to take care of this baby during the day while your gone? This puppy should be watched closely, and fed at least 4 times a day. If they don't eat, their sugar level will drop and they go into shock and coma and die if not treated.

I don't but I he is gated off in the kitchen, where it isnt large but not small, and i leave water and food there. I also come home on a lunch break that is only 30 minutes. So i play with him before work and within the next 4 hrs i come home and let him out and show him some love and then back off to work. It is hard but I Love him and I am making sure that I am doing my best

Are you wanting to sell him or give him away? They have a place on here for both.

alot of yorkie owners have full time schedules..its still managable
he should be ok....

just leave food and water..maybe the radio or tv on..toys a bed and a potty area..and just love and dote on him on the time off

if you really need to place him there are tons of people interested im sure
