Yeah, he sure looks like a Yorkie. Very handsome! Yorkies are very feisty little dogs. They do have a stubborn temperament but are very loyal and loving little dogs. As you have already found out they also think they can talk!These dogs were originally bred for killing rodents in small areas so they have to be quite strong willed and fearless creatures. You will find that most training methods used for other breeds of dogs do not work well with a terrier. Be patient and remember you are dealing with a different species here.

Since he does not have registration papers you can't enter him into a conformation type of dog show but if you are interested in obedience training he could probably be entered into obedience shows. They can be a lot of fun and once you learn how to train a terrier they do great in obedience trials.
