Why do you feel the need to confine this poor little boy in a space just big enough for him to turn around and lie down in in order to house train him?

First of all HE IS A PUPPY, he is going to have accidents, get over it. If you get angry with him then he is even less likely to ever be trained because he will start to pee when you are not watching him (such as when he is in his crate) to try to avoid getting told off.

Watch him, take him out to potty every hour, after he wakes up, after he eats/drinks and after he plays. Wait for him to go, when he goes say good boy and give him a treat. He will learn eventually, but NOT immediately.

I am getting really sick of your posts moaning about 'the pom' and 'the yorkie', having a puppy is a joyful time and you should be cherishing every second of it.
