I think it's all definately temperment and spirit. You have a high spirited little one. Roxie did a little digging when she was younger but not anymore. My brother has 2 yorkie-poo's and one likes to dig. He came up with a sollution that seems to work. When he digs a hole, scoop some of his poop and put it in the hole then cover it back up with dirt. They'll never dig in the same spot again! I laughed so hard when I heard this but I tried it with my grandfurbaby (he's 54 lb's at 6 months old) and it worked. Hasn't stopped him entirely but they don't dig as much or in the same place. Good fertilizer too!
