When you first get your Yorkie puppies and bring them home from wherever you get them, the first thing you will want to do is play with them for hours on end. This trend will likely continue until one of the Yorkshire Terrier puppies has their first accident in the house. Then the theme will change from playfulness to a training regiment. Training Yorkie puppies will not be a struggle as long as you follow certain guidelines and decide to be patient with your companions right from the beginning. Yorkshire Terrier puppies are well known for being rather stubborn during the training process, but they are also rather smart so you just need to figure out how to get them on your side and begin to follow your commands. Once you crack the code of the Yorkie puppies, they will become the most lovable animals you have every owned and you will know you made the right decision on which breed of dog to go with. When you first begin to train your Yorkshire Terrier puppies, you will need to be focused and be able to deal with a week or two of failure. After that, it begins to get a bit easier and you can begin to develop a schedule for your dogs, which will help the training process go by much more quickly. Just to be clear, the patience that is needed during the training is not for the dog but for you. You are the human and controller of the situation, so you are going to have a better sense of where things are in the whole process of training your Yorkie puppies. When doing the training, you need to be realistic in how long the learning process is going to take. This will depend on how old the dog is and whether or not it has any prior training. Many people decide to give up while training their dog, but you should really try to train the dog yourself instead of paying someone else to do it. This way, the dog is much more likely to respect you and follow the commands when you do them, instead of just when their old trainer says them. You should also think about the kinds of things a normal Yorkie is going to be able to do, although they are a rather intelligent animal so you can set your expectations relatively high. A schedule is a huge key to making sure the training turns out to be effective in the end. Try and get your dog to go to the bathroom at certain times of the day because it is unlikely that you will be with them for every hour of their life. For example, try and get them to go to the bathroom outside before you go to work so you don't have to worry about them having an accident in the house while you aren't there.
