I live on a cul de sac with very little traffic and she is on a leash at all times even if we are just walking to the mailbox. If she's sees a bird, a squirrel or even another dog, she will try her best to hunt it down.

I leave her break away cat collar own at all times for her tags. I only put her harness on when we go for walks. Please reconsider letting your baby out without a leash. These little stinkers are extremely fast and if she takes off, chances are you won't be able to catch her. I know when Duchess is focused on a squirrel or really anything furry, I can't get her attention.
Is there a smaller collar that will fit a yorkie's neck that i can leave on at all times? I don't have a collar. She has never worn anything, other than that harness for walks. I feel that the harness is too big and bulky to wear 24/7, so is there any alternatives to leash them when just going potty for a few minutes?
