If I am ignoring him he will start the shuffle for my attention...and of course a bit of vocal to make sure I did not miss anything. This is different than marking their turf. I saw a bit of this in my labador as well, but not as dominant.
I love the Yorkie shuffle/dance! My Teddy does this to let me know when he has used the pad and needs "room service" to clean it up. His brother Max will do it outside. He learned from Teddy that it makes me happy.
