Hello everyone, I'm new to this site and i think i get really use some help from Yorkie owners. I got a 7.5 week old Yorkie about a little over a week ago, so that makes him 8.5 weeks. His name is Enzo, and Enzo has pooping issues
! I don't really know what to expect from a young puppy like that and most of all a Terrier. Sooooo Enzo will make it to the Puppy pad to go pee after he wakes up and after playing. I also make sure to pay attention to him to pee on the pad. But the second i don't look he pees just a little anywhere on the title in our condo. That i can still live with because i know i still have some much time to work on that. Here's the problem... Enzo will hold in his poop the entire day and not go on the pad at all. As soon as he gets out of his kitchen and dinning room area (that's where we try to get him to stay since it's tile) he runs to find carpet and poops there instantly. I know i've only had him for a week or so, so i shouldn't expect anything big. But i'm kind of a neat freak and it bugs me just a little when he poops on my carpet.
I really want to be doing things right with him from the very beginning. Please help. I'm wide open for all advice.
Thank you
