Hey guys.

I can definitely feel your pain. I have two yorkies. My one is 100% potty trained. He will even go outside in stormy weather, and has been like that since the age of about 3months. He is a year old now.
My little girl is another story. She is about 7 months old and no matter what I try, she always messes in the house. I don't know what to do anymore!!! We keep all the doors to the bedrooms ect closed so they only have access to the tiled floors, but it's still a huge problem. I'm really desperate for advice. My house is starting to smell no matter how many times I clean and disinfect. Is there something I can wash my floors with to deter her from doing her business in the house or anything else I can try that might work.
It's at the point where it's not even a pleasure to come home from work or leave the bedroom in the mornings.

PS - she wasn't treated very well before we got her (got her when she was 4 months) so she is scared of people aswell which makes it even more difficult.

Please... any advice would be great.
