He is trained to wait on the porch until I lock the door and go down the steps first, then he'll come and walk with me to the car. When we come home he waits on the seat until I get out of the car and tell him he can come out. I agree that Ceasar's ways are not always the best ways. It takes patience, consistancy and lots of practice, but you can train a yorkie.
I hate to say it but this is so true, before Lily I could not stand people with un trained dogs. I have a big dog who is trained very well as have all my previous dogs have been. Well.... Lily is my first small dog and as much as I love her she is a brat and it is all MY fault . With my big dogs I would do training 1 hour a day every day. Lily is so spoild, this set of posts has opened my eyes to the fact that just because she is small and so darn cute does not mean she can get away with everything.
