It's very annoying, but my friend allows it and jokes her girl is just vocal. My friend allows a behavior, and the behavior progresses and gets worse. Same with marking.
I do agree that some people create their own "monster" with small dogs. They need to be trained to obey just like big dogs do. I just am amazed to see all the people who say their dogs mark inside! I was considering getting another Yorkie but thinking that a boy would be out of the question if this is a normal trait of the males. If they are neutered they should be able to control such behavior.
