I was gone a lot during the day when my Yorkie was a puppy and he learned quickly what the puppy pads were. When I was home, I would move the pad closer and closer to the door. I would also keep an eye on him and whenever he went to the pad, I'd take him outside. Of course, when he went outside, I would reward him with a treat and praise him a lot. He still struggles a little with knowing where to go poop (I used to put the puppy pad in my shower, so he thinks that is where he should poop) , but he is coming along. Many people in this forum talk about potty training issues, so maybe Yorkies are just a little stubborn in this department. Good luck! |
