Question
I have two yorkies one I can do anything with he (He is 2) is very good and well behaved my other yorkie who is older (HE  is 4) is very hard to deal with and i wanted to try and groom him myself but i am afraid  because he is so hard to manage even when I take him to be groomed he is just impossible but it is getting too expensive to have to pay and have them groomed every six weeks ant suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Answer
You should start working with him little by little everyday.  If he behaves badly firmly tell him NO and don't stop what you are doing.  When he behaves give him treats and a lot of praise.  If all else fails obedience training should help.  Some dogs are just impossible and have to be sedated, your vet should be able to prescribe something.  Sorry I don't have any magic tricks, Believe me I wish I did!  Let me know if you have anymore questions.
