| Potty Training Help I am trying to house break my yorkie. She gets excited when I ask her if she wants to go outside. She doesn't have any accidents for me at all. If I have someone else try and watch her like my kids or hubby so I can run errands she will always have an accident. Could it be she is mad at me for leaving her. What should I do about this. |

| It's a dog so it probably doesn't get mad at you. Get a pee pad and try to get her to start going on the pad. I am trying to make my dog an indoor dog and it's so hard to get him to go to the bathroom in the house now that he's house broken. I am afraid of skunks, other dogs, squirrels, hawks, etc.. so I want my dog indoors at all times aside from walks. You may want to consider doing the indoor patch training thing now. Even if you dont want her to be an indoor dog, try getting her to pee on the pee pad in the house. Once she does that, move it outside. Just hang in there though - yorkies have a reputation for being difficult to housebreak. It took my dog to about 1 year before he was totally housebroken. |

| If she likes going outside, sounds like a mis communication problem when she has to pee...... Try getting a bell for her to ring to go out. Mine picked up on it fast and she was only 4 months and its a blast . No confusion there when she has to go and you hear a ding ding ding! |

| Are you sure everyone else is taking it as seriously as you are? When you're potty training them they can't be let out of sight; at least, that was my experience with Cookie. It took probably 2.5 months of training (got her at 14 weeks) before I could comfortably let her out of my sight.

| Yeh if you are her human the others won't do , I would either crate her or I have a large pen that contains her bed, pee pads and feeding dish for when I go away. |
