Even if you are done with this discussion, I just wanted to point out one thing to you. No training, regardless of the method works overnight. It takes patience and persistent. If you have patients, a strict schedule to follow, and praise the good you'll see results. It's not overnight, but you will have a happy, trained yorkie.
Also, hitting can lead to submissive urination which is a problem in and of itself. The dog pees out of fear. That is harder to correct. If you hit/spank a dog that pees out of fear, it will only get worse. The only way to fix that is to gain their trust again. That takes months or years. My pup was adopted at 12 months. He was potty trained by his previous home, but he had that submissive urination problem. It took me about a year to fix that. You don't want to go through that. It's frustrating, and the pups don't understand why.
