It can not be done...I had a girl who never left our yard in the first 8 years of her life..she was my shadow, always right by my feet..one day I was in the front yard with her and she suddenly darted across the street, barely being missed by a car..have no clue why she did it, but I have never trusted a Yorkie outside, unleashed or unfenced again..EVER!

A friend used to open her front door and her Yorkie would run from the house directly into the open car door.did it hundred's of times, never diverted his path...one day he decided to run across the street and was killed.
