| yes another house breaking question my little boy goes to the bathroom outside pretty good, he is 6 months old. He isn't into wee wee pads because he will do his buisness on them but then end up shredding them like a play toy or he'll even sleep on them (I don't get it). So basically every time we take him outside to go to the bathroom he'll come back in the house and sprinkle. I am wondering is this due to the fact he isn't fixed yet? I have belly bands i put on him after he's been outside but I just want him to be on a good schedule with accidents. He will still poop on the floor as well, not fun. I try to be consistent and I am afraid him being fully housebroken is a lost cause |

| Hang in there. Yorkies are difficult to train. There are some good training books. I still have issues w/ my lil guy.

| Since you say "sprinkle" That sounds like he's marking and yes that will lessen after he's fixed Mine shred their pads too But they will always leave another to eliminate on If he'll sleep on it ... are you leaving him enough room so that there is room enough to delineate areas to sleep play and eliminate on?

He is in a large x-pen at night and he gravitates towards the pad so I stopped leaving one in at night. If he is loose he won't go on a wee wee pad at all. When he is loose I walk him about every 20 mintues and then when back in the house his belly band goes on. | |

| If he's in the X-pen ... make sure there is a place clearly for sleeping and a place marked clearly for peeing and pooping after he's eliminated esp in the wrong palce clean that area with an ezymatic solution
