I've put a leash on in the house and let him walk around he is fine. Once I pick up the leash he puts on the brakes and won't move. I've tried holding treats in front of him, but he still won't move.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I hope you have a harness on him. Yorkies should only wear a harness bc they can get a collapsed trachea. I started using a leash on Pixie in the house first bc she felt more secure. I would use it walking around from room to room and then eventually we did around the yard. I would use a treat and praise her when she was walking on the leash. Good luck
