I'm hoping I'm just reading this wrong.

I hope you aren't crating him for 9 hours a day at 11 weeks old? And I hope you aren't taking him outside where he can eat rabbit & squirrel poop before his series of puppy shots & rabies are completed?

I'd recommend getting an x-pen (playpen) setup with an area for a bed & toys at one end and a potty pad area at the other.

I had a playpen for ZoE with removeable panels. When I first got her I had it very small so her pee pad and her bed just fit in there. She'd lay on her bed and go potty on her pad and I'd praise her like crazy and give her a treat each time she did. I would only take her out to play after she had gone potty, so I knew I had some time to play with her where she wouldn't need to pee.

I then added more panels to her playpen so she had more room. I still praised & treated whenever she went on her potty pads. The next step was opening up the side of the playpen, while blocking off the entrance to the room it was in, so she only had one room to roam. Still praising & treating everytime she went potty on her pads. Then she got the run of a couple of rooms I could block off, then finally the run of the house.

You basically have to create the situation that he will be successful in and then praise & treat to reinforce it is what you want. Be consistent in this and baring any physical problems, he should potty-train fairly quickly. Yorkies are smart and they want to please their owner.

ZoE was fully potty trained by 12 weeks. It took me another month or two to build up my confidence in her to give her the run of the house. She's now 1 year old and hasn't had any accidents at all since she was about 10 weeks old.
