I would really like to know his name. I have been really sick and not on here for days. I just read the whole post. Congrats on your Yorkie baby. Where are those pics??? PLEASE!!!!! Tell us his name.
I to am a first time Yorkie mommy. We have two bigger dogs but let me tell you Little Winstin(he is just over three months old) is different. I would not give him a lot of space to roam when he is alone. He needs to feel secure and safe as others have said. I myself have never been impressed with training on pads. I have however, read a lot of success stories on here about it. That has really impressed me. If you do what they tell you with the pee pads, I believe they are right and it will work. I had a poodle that we paper trained and it was a very bad experience. I was in high school at the time and did what I was told by a parent and I promised myself I would never do it again. We simply crate Winstin when we are gone and when we are home we keep him in the same room as us and take him out every hour or two. It has worked so far. With just a handful of accidents. He even sleeps with us at night. That itself has made Winstin and I bond. We rock in my recliner several times a day.
Your baby is very young. Give him and yourself time. This place is a great place to learn a lot. So ask as many questions as you need to. |
