I'm having the same problem. My Yorkie is 8 months now, I got him when he was 4. He has been doing really great until these last 2 weeks or so. He knows the designated potty area (which is in my bathroom) but he will not go on the pad, instead he goes right next to it. I've tried moving it closer and closer to where he goes but he keeps moving as well and then when I tried using multiple pads, he started peeing in the hallway! I am so frustrated with him. I think he is just being rebellious because he used to be great. He's also at the stage where he is tearing up any scrap of paper he can find. Every time I scold him for peeing on the floor or reward him for going on the pad I think I confuse him even more since it is all generally in the same place. I don't know what to do.
