I think its excitement peepee...at 14 weeks they can not hold there pee or poop for any amount of time...when they gotta go they gotta go.
What I did when I was potty training my pups, starting at 12 weeks old...I confined them to a doggie play yard...its big enought for food/water/bed on one side and a potty pad on the other side...they did not have full run of the house...I took them outside every 1-2 hours...when I was getting them out of the play yard I would say to them...lets go outside to potty or if your pad training for inside, I would say the samething but I would say lets go potty and take her to the potty area you want her to go to...keep saying go potty until she does, if she doesn't go I would put her back in the play yard for a few minutes and than try again...when she does her business on the potty pad or outside....throw a huge potty party, telling her what a good girl she is and give her a treat that she really likes...and what I mean by throwing a potty party, get very excited and happy, showing her how happy you are that she pottied in that area...yorkies love to please you and once she see how happy and pleased you are, she will contunue to try and please you cause she wants that attention...than keep her out of the play yard for some play time with you, but you watching her very closely the whole time...than before putting her back in her confined area take her back to the pad or outside so she can potty again...always take them to the potty pad / outside every 2 hours, after they eat/drink/playing, first thing in the mornings, right before you go to bed..before putting then back in the play yard...if she does have an accident and you catch her in the middle of it....Say NO and take her right to the pad or outside and say to her go potty in a happy exciting voice..never punish or yell/hit or sticking her nose in it...that will make her fear you for one thing and than she will start hiding her potty accidents and you don't want that...Potty training is a 24/7 job that never ends, not even when you think she is fully trained...I still throw potty parties for my 3, Bella is 3 yrs old and Harley & Ivy are only 9 mos old...and they are all fully trained but I know if I don't enforce/treat on a daily bases there will be accidents and always keep in mind she may still have the rare accident...as she gets older she will be able to control her potty and hold it longer...My 2, 9 month old pups can go all night sleeping in our bed anywhere from 6 to 10 hours without any accidents but at 14 weeks they really can't control or hold it very long...its gonna take consistency on your part...her potty training success starts with you. Good luck!
