I posted a question a few weeks ago about training my Yorkie puppy because I was having a hard time with her. She wasn't responding the way my other dogs had (Beagle and Akita and a few others that I've helped relatives and friends with). Everyone just told me to be patient and find a treat that she LOVES, so that's what I did and she coming along The others are definatly right, it's all about patients and doing it a million times lol. For example, where every other dog I've trained learned "sit" in like 5 minutes most (even my Akita and if you know anything about that breed, they can be VERY stubborn) it took like 2 days with Alice! So, I'm new with a Yorkie like you and it is different, but I've seen some videos of Yorkies doing amazing with obedience and agility, so I guess it may just take a little more work than what you're possibly used to. Housebreaking is a long process too, never ever thought I'd break down and use piddle pads, but I did and they are a life saver Good luck and welcome
