I agree with Yorkiedaze..keep your pet in a kennel when you can't watch him with 100% attention.. If he pees on the floor and you don't see it..he will think it's OK and keep doing it...please use something that "REMOVES DOG URINE". Simple cleaning isn't enough... what smells clean to you and me is still detected by him.
Take him outside on a leash..praising him when he potties outside...then back into his kennel when you can't watch him...correct him "in the act"...a couple of minutes later he doesn't know why you are yelling at him...don't ever hit him or rub his nose in it..just say No very loudly..he'll get the hint... you can also use belly bands to help in the house... If you've never used belly bands on your male yorkie, please write back and I'll tell you how to get them (or make one).
Of course, the [I]Most[/I] important thing is that he may have a urinary tract infection (talk to your vet, they may want a urine sample).
In that case, training won't help. (not yet)
