I have 3 yorkies and one female still goes in the crate every once in awhile. She is my 2nd dog and I'm not sure why she does that. None of the others do that. She does good for awhile and then its like she forgets what she is outside for except to run and play. Then she will have an accident later in her her crate. We have used both the xpen w/ pads and then the crate. I think you have to work with them both ways. The xpen I like to use when they are little till they are old enough to learn what the outside potty is for and can learn to hold it till its time to be released out of the crate. They all do good at night. Even Cali the one we sometimes have troubles with accidents. I think she is the biggest one but the yougest. She is just going on 5 mos. Guess I just want her to get through this spell.
