rspears - I wonder if your Yorkie is afraid of men. I would try to get her out and around strangers more.

I also wonder if your Yorkie is guarding you in that particular situation.

What I would do is have hubbie come back in the room with treat extended every time for a while so that she learns he is not a threat. Please note that I said treat extended every time. This is not the same as let her growl and then offer a treat - THAT would be rewarding the behavior. You want him to offer the treat first!
