| Funny, funny, funny.... Just had to share this.... I recently moved into a ranch style house. The girls have their own room where their liter boxes are located. The basement door is in the kitchen. Miss Mia my deaf girl has a new habit, and it just cracks me up. She goes in her room to pee, comes out and literally tiptoes, head down like a cat stalking a mouse, and "sneaks" past me, runs down the basement steps...it sounds something like horses running, she is not graceful at all...she runs to the far corner of the basement, takes a poop, runs back up the stairs, stands in the kitchen and wipes her feet like a person! The look on her face is priceless, she is all happy and excited afterward, like she got away with something...she is so mischievous! I have no idea why she does this but I don't mind. Its simple clean up, but I think I will put a liter box down there just for being "proper" appearances!

| What a funny girl! My two like to sneak up to the room they hang out during the day with their potty pads and poop. I would rather they go outside while I'm home, but if they insist... lol

| Sounds like she has picked her spot! Gracie does not like to poo in the same place she pees either. |

| Lol that is so cute i could not get mad either i love the lady like wiping my paws off after doing something dirty lol Guinness WAS really good about going outside for #2 that is until I put down the christmas mat at the door for the garage... For some reason Santa's face is the new place to go. I would be ok with it BUT when you come home open the door you either slide it across using the door or step in it.

YT Addict | Too cute. Even though Lolli always goes outside no matter what, she always wipes her feet. This is actually a friendly territorial thing, I believe? It just means "Yeah.. I pooped there. This is MY place now! hehehehe" type of thing. But on that note.. how does one litter box train a dog? I've never heard of it but it's intriguing. Could I teach a 10 year old yorkie to do such a thing?! The reason I inquire is because we are about to move into a 3rd floor apartment. This may help during work hours (I work from home) from having to haul her up and down the steps just to pee. I don't like making her run up and down steps that have no backing on them, plus 3 flights is a lot and I worry about her hurting her back.

Its your preference on how you want to train them, I enjoy the freedom it allows me if I am running late from work, or not wanting to go in the cold. Miss Mini is low to the ground small and we get snow here so its just easier for me...ok fine I'm lazy, I had 23 big dogs that needed constant care, I'm lazy now, I love the litterbox method....

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | OMG, my Oliver (he's a toy poodle tho) does that too, it's funny, but can be frustrating, coz Stewie my Biewer eats poop, and follows Oliver around, so when Oliver moves while he poops, Stewie sometimes steps on the poop by mistake. It can get very messy :/

| I have 2 of these as well: Amazon.com: Argee RG155 Table-Top Gardener... You can get the dog litter at any pet supply place or do like me and use pads either disposable or washable...

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | Do they work better than pad holders? For multiple pets?

| personally, I swear by the boxes, keeps them from thinking rugs are ok...I swear by the box method with mine, but again its what you prefer. I have no problems with the peepads. I use the ones made by 107Barney that are a perfect fit. I've also used disposable, no problems.
