 Hope this helps a little!
It sounds like she is just lonely or bored and taking it out on you and your husband. They are smart little cookies. I also have a young yorkie. She is 5 months and does have an attitude at times however, I notice that when she acts like that, she needs to get out and run or go for a walk. Either that or when she gets overly tired, she is a brat. I am trying to train her that everytime I say "COME", she immediately responds. We use lots of carrots, she loves them and they are good for her. When she is running outside and I say "Zoey, COME, she knows that she gets a treat, and comes right in. Every once in awhile I have to repeat it a couple of times and raise my voice. So far, it is working.....we'll see. Usually, if I raise my voice and say "STOP", she will. Have you trained her to sit and stay? Does she do it? They seem to be just like kids. They need to know their boundries and need to be disciplined when they cross them. I hope this helps.
