Hi Canadian Friends: My Brady is 4 months old and 2.5 pounds. We live in Ottawa. Do you guys take your little one out for walks in the winter? Does your baby to his/her business outside or inside?

We let Brady out the other day when it was above 0, she played in the fresh snow for a couple minutes but soon started shivering....

My name is Tonya and my Yorkie's names are Lady (6mths 3lbs 1oz) and Sprocket (6mths 4lbs 4oz) I live in Regina Sask. and my dogs are both pee pad trained and outside trained they do most of their buisness outside now that the weather is better. They don't like the fleece jackets I got them so they haven't been outside much till the last 3-4 weeks...

eh! ha, ha

Brady's Mom · 04-04-2005, 05:44 AM

How did you get them to start going outside after always going on the pad?

Brady's Mom · 04-04-2005, 06:47 AM

Good idea but I don't know if I should just continue to let her use the pad, it doesn't bother me and I don't want to confuse her when winter comes again and I don't want her to go outside.

On another note, what are you guys feeding your Yorkies? I'm feeding Brady Royal Canin Mini puppy mixed with Eagle pack puppy canned food, she also gets apples and yoghurt on a regular basis.

Hi everyone My name is Fran and I have a grandbaby yorkie named Homer. We live in Dartmouth Nova scotia . I puppy sit Homer 2 or 3 days a week . He is 11 weeks old and weighs 1.65 kg . He is quite the challange . Loves the outside now that there is no snow. I don't know what next winter will bring. He is neither paper trained or outside trained yet .I hope to get him to go outside when he is with me. he just drops his butt anywhere if he needs to go no warning. I try to take him out every hour if its nice.

Brady's Mom · 04-04-2005, 11:13 AM

Hi Fran: These little ones can be a challenge...a good tip a I received is they always have to pee after a play time or a nap (even if it's just 5 minutes) so if the little one is sleeping on you and wakes up take her outside right away and if she goes praise her lavishly! Don't punish her - that doesn't work. Just praise her for the good stuff.

Thanks I will try to do that. Not sure about male yorkies do they start to lift their leg or can they do like females when older and just squat

I have no idea but I'm sure if you post something in a new thread in the behaviour section you'll get tons of answers. This place is like a Yorkie encyclopedia.

Hello Brady

I had problems training on the pee pad (lots) So I didn't take he pad outside... however I still have them in the house just in case. I had 5 days off work and decided to nip this thing in the bud. (6mths old) and good weather forcast I was able to take him from 40% trained to 90% and she went from 80% trained to 100% let's cross our fingers... I did everything you mentioned in a later reply with taking them out lots of love and treats for "good potty" every 1 1/2 hours. It was a lot of work and patience but It has payed off my house is finally not spelling of pee or vinegar! For small dogs their poops may be smaller but they make up for it in frequency!

Hope this helps sorry for not replying earlier but My husbands been monopolizing the computer with school work.
