I agree with this. The only thing I will say is sometimes it does not work. I hate to bring Jersey up again but she's a classic example. We've had her from 10 weeks and I am very Yorkie experienced. I've done the lying down thing and she still shows aggression towards the others. Sometimes rehoming is your better option. Rehome her into a home without other pets. She's young and where it may be correctable I still think if she's this aggressive this young it will only get worse. Elaine
