If you have never experienced this problem believe me there is such a thing.
Yorkie's are no different than any other breed when it comes to being
Alpha. I have been through it and it's not fun! It can start from nowhere
and escalate into big problems if you do not take it seriously.
Some dogs are mellow other's are leader's. It's the leader's who experience
the Alpha position. It's not fun to see a little Yorkie get aggressive.
This is the #1 reason dogs are found in pounds all over the world.
People don't understand the concept of being a leader, or Alpha in the
pack.
