The Yorkie will be compatible. Actually, the long haired version will help you as it acts as a dust mop all over when walking on the floor.......

The OP states he lives in The Villages, so I will assume that the floor is concrete slab. As long as it is installed according to the manufacture's destructions, with proper barrier and cushioning, and with the proper gap around the parameter, you should have no problems. I have installed many floors of this type and have never had any issues.
