I have a 5 yr old Maltese that still marks the sofa and other areas in the house where he or other dogs have marked in the past. I had a vet here once and that was the question I asked her, She said, even though you get them fixed, they still have hormones that does not change. Some are markers and some are not. Yorkies are one of the hardest breeds to train. But marking and urinating in the house are not the same.My Maltese will mark in the house but if he has to potty he runs to the door and barks.I use a belly band while in the house . Good Luck
