I wouldn't even know where to begin with training this dog or where to find a trainer to accomplish the goal. It's not that he doesn't know what is and what isn't acceptable, he just chooses not to behave as desired. That's tough to deal with. I have owned numerous dogs in my life and my wife and I currently own 2 more dogs (a westie and a lab) and have no problems training them. My westie is completley house broken (female) but lives outdoors with the lab most of the time. I wouldn't say they are the best behaved dogs in the world, but both of them realize when they've done something wrong and show submissive traits when disciplined. No matter what method of discipline used on the yorkie, he shows aggressiveness and hostility towards the person disciplining and never changes. If he pees somewhere and you find it later, you can take him back to the spot where he peed and as soon as you sit him by it he knows and remembers that he did it, that you aren't happy about it, and he growls at you. |
