Looked into the training class I had mentioned it is NOT cheap and I am NOT rich so I guess I am going to have to be it for now.
Are you using a harness? Very important when it comes to Yorkies, imo.

I think a training class will be very beneficial. I know most aren't cheap but you will really learn a lot. I, who enjoys training by myself and taught Jackson everything he knows, even had great fun and learned a ton in our training class. The trainer guides you and helps you with things you sometimes don't even realize you are doing. I paid $165 for an 8 week agility course -- not cheap but totally worth it. I am even planning on doing some obedience courses just to fresh up what we already know.
