Thanks for the welcome and reply. Apparently he is a "marker" from his shelter description. I get the impression that he wasn't taken very good care of (which just breaks my heart)
. I am not opposed to crate training him and have a crate just the right size (even though he's 3 pounds of nuthin'). I will probably start there and see how it goes.
Also, he is scheduled to be neutered next week which leads me to another question. At 3 pounds how dangerous is the anesthesia? I've been doing Yorkie research all day (I just got the email today about him) but still have questions that warrant real owners opinion.
