My vet has me put my Cavalier in clothes b/c he has alopecia on his belly and is bald! But she also told me that small breeds, like Yorkies, dont have the body mass to deal with the cold, thats why sweaters are good.

Indoors, its not usually necessary though. As far as training, try putting on the outfit and going right for a walk outside, the pup wont have time to wriggle out of her clothes and she will associate getting dressed with a fun walk! Then hopefully she'll be too pooped to try and get out when you get home and she will get used to it!
