That is to funny. My husband did not want a small dog. And for years I have been trying to change his mind. He could not see spending so much money on somthing so little (what he would call a rat). Then finally I convinced him of getting a Yorkie. Now he absolutly loves her. He said that was the best money we ever spent (and he is very tight with money). He would not change her for the world. She fits in perfectly in our family. And now we are looking into getting another Yorkie real soon (we have to find a breeder).

I would definetly look for puppies that were bred for temperment. Make sure you take a good look at the parents personality to. As far as training it depends on what type of training you are talking about. If you mean tricks like sit, stay, roll over, give paw and play dead that can be done easily and fairly quickly (Amber learns her tricks in 15 minutes and does not forget them). Yorkies are very smart dogs but also can be stubborn. As far as housebreaking that took alot longer to do. My female is 7 months old and I can finally say she is housebroken. Yea !
