As Maximo stated training should be no more then 5 to 10 minutes, other wise they loose concentration. My Cody was older 2.5 yo when I rescued him. I did 5 / 10 minutes training just ONE command throughout the day, several times. I was would say with the 5 / 10 minutes throughout the day it took 45 minutes for him to get that ONE command down pat. I used his kibble for treats, Cody is VERY FOOD motivated. I just gave him less kibble when it was feeding time to make up for the kibble treats he had. The next day I taught him another command, using the same method above, again he learned that command in about the same time. Day 3 using the 5 / 10 minutes training I made him do the 2 commands he just learned. Day 4 I taught him another command. Cody is VERY SMART and learns quickly, you have a baby, all he wants to do is play so it may take longer. Start simple with SIT command. Lots of patience, treats and PRAISE like crazy, do happy dance, clap hands, they LOVE that. Let us know you his training goes. Yorkies LOVE to please us, he will work hard for that crazy PRAISING.
