Drop something on the path that shows up well, say, a handkerchief. Tell the dog to ‘seek back’, pointing to where you have come from.

Your yorkie dog won?t probably understand command language the first time used, so use body language and gestures to encourage him to go away and seek all the time. Nine times out of ten he sees the handkerchief and picks it up.

Usually if a dog reaches for its owner’s personal item during retrieval training he grabs the item, as he is very excited and eager to play. Praise him immediately; but should he pass it by – return to it, and show it to him, pick it up, and use it to play with him. Then take him away, get it put down for you again, and try once more.

The well behaved dog in public If your dog obeys during training they are going to have a wonderful time, really. I think that you will like best a dog that has been trained to stay happily in your car, for example, and would reward the yorkie for the relaxation you feel.

When training your yorkie to retrieve first decide to what you wish the dog to find. For example, use a glove. When training a dog to retrieve a personal item place the item, a glove for example, for a minute or two prior to doing the exercise, under your armpit, it will then pick up a good scent of you.

‘Sit’ in front and go round to heel to finish with most dog training. In teaching a yorkie dog to ‘seek back’, go for a walk and on your way.

Always bring treats with you during outings to reinforce good behavior. You do not need to feed your yorkie many treats every outing. Bring a baggie of 5 small bite size treats per dog.

Say no to your yorkie outside of training time. Reserve this word for outside of the training time. No during training will discourage your dog and make your efforts useless.
