Welcoming a baby into a home with a Yorkie is exciting, but it is also a big change for the dog. Even a very social Yorkie may need time to adjust to new sounds, routines, and a household that suddenly feels noisier, busier, and far less predictable.
Start with practical safeguards: keep the dog’s routines steady, give both dog and baby protected spaces, and never leave them alone together. Being in the same room while distracted is not active supervision; use secure physical separation whenever your attention is elsewhere.
