Default Hi, I have my first Yorkie and a few questions for you all

I have a new puppy of 14 weeks named Maggie. She's been with me 2 weeks now and is the sweetest. I have gone from having to have my beloved Lab, Buster, of 13 1/2 years put down several months ago, to having this new little blessing...quite the difference!

Does anyone have advice on teaching her not to jump up on legs, or spring up and down like a crazy nut when she wants to sit with someone in a chair? Right now with the cold weather we are wearing jeans, etc, but I don't think that once summer rolls around it will feel that great to have her scratch peoples bare legs! I've never had a "lap" dog and love it, but how DO you teach them to not jump up every waking moment?!

I live where it is cold and snow right now. She is doing great on potty pad training. However, any hints from anyone on training outside potty when it is freezing outside? Should I just wait until spring to even attempt the outside potty training?

Any advice would be great!
