I am always curious about this, too. It would never be something I'd do, particularity with Yorkies, but to each their own if it works for you!
I dogsit a Lab who went to one of these "boot camps" for 2 weeks and the owner now keeps a prong collar on him 24/7, pops the leash all the time, etc. Don't get me wrong, he walks better, but he doesn't seem all that more well behaved to me. I think if the owner put in more time with him, he'd be a much better dog.
I hope they are using positive reinforcement. But I am happy to hear they are doing well and can't wait to hear of their progress!
