Haha. The visual of a tiny Yorkie somehow getting up onto a big toilet which is pre-equipped with a toddler seat is pretty funny but I doubt if someone has seriously tried it. For one thing, who would want to sit on a toilet where your dog's feet had just been? Plus, most small dogs are pretty scared of getting up onto slippery places with no surrounding support and would not feel secure during the training at all, likely not being ever relaxed enough up on the top of the toilet to produce anything.

The whole idea of expecting a dog to eliminate in a human toilet is pretty unnatural for the dog, too. Their natural instinct is to eliminate outside where they can mark their very own territory and their powerful scent will be "appreciated" by the whole outdoors world, mostly other dogs in the neighborhood.
