My yorkie.......Lilly...........is 5 months, and she is finally becoming what I would call potty trained. We have not had an accident inside in about 2 weeks. She goes and sits by the door when she has to go. I have a bell there for her to ring, but she does not do that yet. Even so, I still ring it and have her ring it everytime we go out. I will look over, and see her sitting by the door. THen I know she has to go! I also make sure she is not alone in the areas where she went to the bathroom inside.
I really feel like we are past the worst of it. The hard part is the weather.......it is a real bummer going out in the rain. I don't even mind the cold and snow as much as the rain. I have to hover over her with an umbrella. I don't really want her going inside, so we have just suffered through. She seems to go quicker outside when the weather is bad, probably so she can get in quicker.
