I do want to welcome you to YorkieTalk, I'm sure by now you have figured out just how passionate we are about this breed and of course our own furbabies. My best advise is to read, read and read some more. There is always something new to learn.
I know everyone says pups should remain with their mom's until at least 12 weeks old. But I got both of my guys at 8 weeks and they both turned out well. As long as you are consistent and persistent with the potty training and feeding schedule, I think you'll do fine. Remember, when you bring her home do not immediately put her down on the floor, instead take her to where ever you want her to potty in the future, whether that is a potty pad or outside is up to you. Make sure she does potty and that you praise her and give a little treat. She will want to get that same reaction from you again and again. Her goal in life will be to please you...make it happen. You and she will be so much happier once she's properly trained. Good luck and please share your stories of her with us.
