I am a fairly new Yorkie mommy as well. I am going on 1 month and a half with Holly. But I am just going to share what I have done and see if it works for you. You can usually tell when your puppy needs to go. They start sniffing around and walking at a fast pace. Whenever she would squat, I picked her up and put her on a puppy pad. If she tinkled even a little bit there, I praised like crazy. I also used the Potty Training Aid by Simple Solutions. I sprayed it on the pad and it's supposed to stimulate them to go on that spot (I guess it smells like pee). It does smell bad.
Also I keep her on a schedule and I can more or less tell when she is going to have to go. I got all my ideas from here so search through. I'm sure you'll find some help.
Good Luck. |
