Default Agressive Yorkie Nothing Works

I have tried everything - banging metal cups together and saying no; laying her firmly on her back until she stops; squirting her with water. . . Nothing seems to be working.

My female was that way with my husband (I couldn't get near him) like you I thought I had tried everything too, then it hit me...
Yorkies are alot like children in that some punishments just don't work no matter what you try. One night when I went to sit next to him I decided we'd try the time out routine. When she acted agressive I picked her up told her NO and then put her on the floor. When she would try to get back up I would put her down again. After about a week of not being able to sit with dad she decided that it was better to be nice and get along rather than try to try and push the ALFA female around. You have to be strict and keep at it but I'm happy to say that we all live in a happy home now.
