Welcome to YT, for $600. I would be buying two lol. In 1997 when I purchased my last puppy I paid $700. and she was way over the standard size, as an adult she weighed in at 17 lbs lol. Puppies from good breeding stock sell starting at $1500 up to $2500. With yorkie breed patience is an absolute must. Do not use collars for leash walking, use harness, puppies will pull, or you may have to give them a tug or two to get them to walk, you don't want to put pressure on their throats. When I had puppies I had older yorkie also, everyone went for walks at the same time. Depends on the puppy, will it learn from the other dog? Give it a couple weeks trial, if puppy is distracted by your other dog, like it wants to play with it, then take puppy out by it's self, where they can concentrate on what they have to do. When I trained my puppies on house breaking I would give them the command word, pee-pee then poo-poo, they all knew what that meant. Walk and keep repeating what you want them to do. But, you must be patient, cannot be harsh or demanding. I am sure others will be along to offer, advise, suggestions and their own experiences.
