He darts for the door when its opened, he marks all over, he decides when and where he can potty, and he has slowly become more and more aggressive. I was wondering if anyone else has had similar problems with a Morkie/Yorktese? Is it something we are doing wrong, or is it that he is just smarter than his own good and likes to be a pain? We have taken almost every avenue we could towards finding a way to get to the bottom of his problems, but nothing seems to work. We start to make progress, then he gets the hint and takes steps backwards. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE insight me with any information you can to help me get to the bottom of this.

Has he been neutered? If not, that would be the first thing I would do...if he has been, start over from square one, sounds like he's having too much run of the house...they should be confined to one area until they learn to use the potty where they're supposed to go..is he outside trained or pee pad trained?
