I have three male Yorkies, 2 three year olds and 1 two year old. Housebreaking them has been awful at best until I discovered Belly Bands. I tried neutering, I tried baby gating them, I tried a doggie door and this is the only thing that works.

I take their belly bands off in the morning to walk them and then replace them as soon as they come back in. I take them out again in the late afternoon, same routine. After 2 months, they no longer wet the feminine pads in their belly bands, they are not pooping in the floor and they are not hiking their legs on my furniture. When they come in from outside, they wait at the door for me to put the bands back on. I would strongly recommend them for people with male yorkies. The worse part is you pretty much have to bathe them everyday when you first get started.

You can find them online but they are really easy to make.
