| Need help with potty training Lily is 12 wks old and we've had her 2 wks and I'm trying to train her to go on puppy pads so that eventually I can have her go in a litter box. She pees sometimes on the pads, but rarely poops. Last night we went out to friends and left her in the bathroom with food and water and her pad. We were gone about 5 hrs when we got back and let her out she ran out and pooped on the rug and there was nothing from the whole time on the pad. I'm concerned that once she starts going around the house ( and she will go in random spots) that she won't go on the pads. For those of you who've had luck how did you do it? How long did it take? Did you use any special scented pads? Did you have one designated spot? Any help is greatly appreciated! |

| Peeing in the Crate I have a one year old yorkie, Pixie. While I'm at work, I keep her in her crate. She had been doing really well, but over the past few weeks, I've been coming home to find her having accidents in her crate (pee only). She was accident free for about five months. I have no idea what's causing this. The vet checked her urine, it came back negative. He suggests it may be due to separation anxiety. Our routine has not changed over the past year, so I don't know why this is suddenly a problem. Any suggestions? In addition - how do you know if it truly is separation anxiety and what things can I do to solve separation anxiety, if that is the problem? |
