Mine! and Dogs are from Neptune are on my bookshelf waiting to be read as well. I am not familiar with the other books. I skimmed Mine! as soon as it came and it is a great book. Short and sweet and it gives some practical advice.

You have your hands full and I think a lot of these things are typical Yorkie traits and we have to do our best to deal with them. That doesn't excuse their behavior - I just think a lot of us go through the same things. I know Loki does some of the resource guarding and is sometimes reactive.

When you find a trainer - make sure it is a positive trainer! A good trainer can read their body language and give you some insight into *why* they might be doing those things so you can try to avoid those situations and start to modify behavior.
