Yay! I'm an expert at something, Yorkies in the snow! Thanks for the props, Suz and Miezzi!

Yes, based on my experience with two Yorkies, they can be taught to love the snow and cold. Yours will be more of a challenge than mine because mine never knew any better.

If and when you move, let's talk. Little things like getting someone to stomp down fresh snow in the backyard so they don't sink up to their necks will make a world of difference. Booties can be a challenge to put on and get them used to, but they more than doubled the amount of time Eddie could tolerate (and enjoy) the cold. The secret is finding booties that are easy to put on.

Other than that, just start slow and gradually they will want to stay out longer.
