Both of my yorkies are completely housebroken. It took my male about 2 weeks. But while we were potty training him, he was the only dog we had and one of us was home at all times so we could always catch him in the act. And my little male is so eager to please. So, I think it was a combination of his personality and our schedules that helped with potty training him. With my 2nd yorkie, Hootie, she was about a year old before she was going 100% outside. By then, both my husband and I were working fulltime so it took more time to train her. And she is NOT eager to please. She could care less if we punish her. But luckily both are going 100% of the time outside now. I can't remember the last time I found a surprise inside. |
