How does he know he's supposed to go on the pad? Do you reward him? Also, he's too young to be able to hold it. He just goes when he feels the urge. If he is pooping on the carpet then you are allowing him access to the carpet. You need to confine him when you can't watch him. Or you have to wait until he goes before you let him run around.
Yorkies take a lot of patience. It might be 6 months or a year until he is fully trained. It happens sooner IF you are consistent and watch him constantly.
Usually accidents happen on the carpet, in my experience. Also, the pad FEELS like carpet to him. There are people on here that had to remove all throw rugs from their house because the dogs think they are pads. We trained ours to go outside so there's no confusion.
Good luck and just have some patience!! |
