| Peeing on rug only!!! WE have a year old yorkie who is fully trained. He rings a bell and rarely has accidents. We just bought a berbur area rug and he seems to think this is his place to go to the bathroom. He has had two accidents on it. My parents also have the same type of rug and he has had various accidents on this rug. Any ideas how to stop him? |

| He's fully trained for outside only? If so, that kindof strange. I could see this happening if he's pee pad trained. Hope someone can help you

Thor's Human Donating Member | Hm. Well, I would watch him like a hawk when he's near it. I assume he is marking it, not actually pottying? If he's pottying, maybe you can get him on a schedule and make sure he's always empty. If he is marking, wait for him to lift his leg, and clap your hands, or otherwise indicate your displeasure. Then take him outside and reward him for his potty. Also, make sure to clean up the accidents with an enzyme cleaner so he's not drawn back to the scene of the crime. Hope this helps.
