I hear ya!
I NEVER thought that the day would come here Hiro would be trained.
And here I am - he's 9 months now and I started training him at 15 weeks. I am pretty strict on where I keep Hiro, and even though he hasn't had an accident being outside of the crate so far, I refuse to give him free run of the house. They say that your dog isn't trained until a month free of accidents. We're working on it.

Anyway, Yorkies are apparently notoriously hard to train, but just keep at it! Repetition and schedules are key! Say the same thing, take them to the same place when you want them to potty. Keep them on a schedule and make sure be able to recognize when they have to go potty! They will tell you through their actions, sniffing the ground, squatting, running in circles, etc!

I didn't think I'd make it through potty training with all my hair, but here I am, and here WE are almost trained. It's been a long (and aggravating) road... but it's worth it. Hang in there!!!
