Puppies are like children (i.e. babies). One thing I would strongly recommend is getting a book on How to Raise Yorkies. Also, Cesar Milan has an excellent book on raising puppies to become good adult dogs. You must be firm with the little guy, in a gentle but loving way, because if you allow him to get away with things because he is cute, then he will grow up to be an obnoxious dog that no one will want around. Yorkies are very intelligent and learn very quickly, consequently you need to stay on top of the training because they are full of spirit and will challenge you. And, of course, you will get a lot of good advice from this site.
