When I took my chihuahua mix to Oregon he had to wear clothes and did the same thing as your Yorkie. I just kept putting him in it…eventually he appreciated it! I totally agree with you about making pets fashion statements….it is sooooo dumb! But, if it is out of necessity I say go for it!

First let me say I am like you and think that it’s stupid to put clothes on a dog. But anyways, there are puppy mats that allow puppies who aren’t potty trained to use them. But that could cause problems because then you have to train her to go back outside when her fur grows back, and they smell. But you could also train her to go outside when it’s warmer and she won’t shiver so much.

i think its a little dumb if its only for shallow reasons but if it is actually helping your poor pup i think it is great.She will get used to it if you keep it on all day but might be a little freaked out

Keep her in the shirt so she will get used to it and to keep her warm.

She will take a day or two to realize that what you are doing is to keep her safe.

Good luck
