LOL, this made me laugh.

Your post makes me sad AND mad!! I feel so sorry for that yorkie!!

I will admit that I used to spank my babies (I am very embarrassed about this ). However, it's not effective at all, it only makes them scared of me! However, I stopped, every time after I hit them, I get heart broken
I learned to crate them when they do something bad. Now they are both 97-100% potty trained.

I would say to get him checked out by the vet and if your mom is going to continue to spank him, I think it's better off that he gets rehomed to a loving furever home. You really got to be patient with yorkies, but it's all worth it in the end!
