I hear the same thing from MANY Yorkie owners. You are not alone.

My little one, Winston, was the same way. He peed everywhere.

What I have ended up doing is buying wee-wee pads (or Piddle Pads found at PetSmart). I place one of them where Winston seems to go the most. Then tell him "Go pee on the wee wee pad" again and again. When he finally does, I cheer and holler...even if it is after the fact. I give him treats and say good boy.

If he pees anywhere else I make an angry face and say "No No, go pee pee on the wee wee pad."

It took a while (umm, like a year), but now he only goes on the wee wee pad or outside.

I find that Yorkies, especially small ones, have incredibly small bladders and cannot wait to go outside always. When they have to go, they have to go! The wee wee pad works in this case.

Hope this helps!
Good luck!
