| Both Pad and Outside Training So I've been having some problems training my 8 week old puppy Miso. I have a fenced off area where his food and bed and a puppy pad is and when he is in that area he walks straight to the pad and does his thing, but when i open the fence up and play with him in the room he goes EVERYWHERE and I basically have to follow him with a odor remover the whoel time. I've also been taking him outside a lot lately b/c of the nice weather and he goes outside too, but do you think i'm confusing him by going outside and using the pads and should I just stick with one? Help I need a lot of advice on training my baby |

| Well we have a pad outside that ours like using. But you have to realize that yorkies can take a year to get 100% potty trained give or take some time depending on trainer and dog. Your lil pup is only 8 wks and has a long way to go before he stops peeing everywhere. Just keep the paper towels and resolve close by!! We have a 10wk old and she is still grasping the idea of the pad instead of carpet. Patience is key when training our yorkie furbabies. They have that "I'll do whatever the hell i want, and you will like it!!" Kinda mentality. But they adjust nicely. I think after maybe a week ours already sit on command. |

| louis is 5 months and about 90% potty trained on wee wee pads. i had him fenced in the kitchen with a wee wee pad and he pretty much went on the pad. after that, i slowly introduced him to the rest of the house, with wee wee pads in each room and corner. (my friend who has chihuahua is totally against this method-she thinks having too many pads out will encourage them to go everywhere, so it's kinda up to you as to what you think will work) he kinda figured out where the wee wee pads were in each room. then i started taking some away and he's been doing pretty good. i'm down to one in the kitchen, one in the hallway, and one in the living room corner. i removed the one in my bedroom with success, he figured to leave my room and go to the hallway one so -- it takes time and patience. but there's hope. i still find "accidents" but i've figured people aren't perfect either, so what can u expect? |
