ok here it goes.

I have an 8 year old yorkie, I have had her for about a year and a half. She was with a breeder before me and I don't think she was ever trained. She is the sweetest thing, except about pottying. She knows where she should go, at least I think she does. She can definitly hold it. We have tried pee pads, crating, taking her our almost every hour. I don't know what else to do. We have even broke down and bought the lil' diaper for her. I really don't want to continue to do that if I don't have to. By the way, she pees in them. She has a really good morning routine. She gets up with my husband and races to go outside, she comes in and gets her moist food, her favorite, then we wait a few minutes and then let her back outside again. Her problem is with both 1 and 2, it is mostly the pee though. My house isn't smelling pretty and I have had to get rid of 1 rug. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I have another dog that is a German Shepard mix and she is an Angel that has never had to be trained. She won't potty in the house to save her little life. I was hoping that she would help train, but nothing yet. Please offer suggestions if you have them, ask any questions. Also I took her to the vet and had her urine checked, she has an all clear.

Thanks in advance for any help!!
