Kind of off topic, but I should probably add an addendum here.....it's my experience, and at least several others I know of, that Yorkies, if not other breeds, regress within the first year, and so potty training is never really "finished", at least for some.
And now that I'm getting ready to re-train Bella to go outside instead of a pad, which I now wish I had never done because of the confusion she has when we're not at home, I'm sure we're in for lots more FUN! lol
