| First time Yorkie mommy....Help Please :-) Hi everyone, my name is Deanna and I am the proud mama of my first Yorkie baby. Lola is 10 weeks old and we are thrilled to have her as part of our family. I never really had to train a puppy, as I was only 7 when I had my first dog, so mom was responsible. In any case, we are trying (very hard) to train her, and she is just not getting it. I know she's VERY young and I don't expect it to happen overnight, but she's peeing and pooping everywhere...including her crate which is the proper size. I'm hearing mixed reviews on the wee wee pads, but she's to little to go outside yet. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. |

YT Addict | We love pee pads! I tried to crate Ellie when I first got her, but it just did not work out for us. Regardless of the size, she would pee and poop everywhere and would roll all in it and she just hated being in the crate, so we got a playpen and started using puppy pads along with the spray that helps them know where to go, and after a little work she got it. Now all we use is puppy pads. We trained my second one the same way and she has done great as well.

| Thank u so much for getting back to me...Lola doesn't mind her crate, in fact when she's roaming she walks right in and snuggles up, but if she doesn't go before I put her in, I come back to a mess! I work nights so I'm not talking about leaving her for hours, its more like 20 minutes while I run down to throw a load of laundry in. There is always someone home with her and we give her plenty of time to relieve herself. Tonight I put the leash on her with a 3 ft diameter space and rested the chair on the opposite end and it seemed to work, she went right away, I rewarded her and she was free to go. We'll see what happens... |
