 Welcome!!!
Hi and welcome!!! I have been a yorkie mum for a week, already I can't imagine life without her! Mika has very few accidents in the house, I am a stay at home mum so I watch her for clues! She always wants to go as soon as she wakes, after eating and roughly no more than an hour or two between toilet visits! If you are not at home with him then I suggest crate training him. Make sure the crate is large enough to allow Ziggy room to sleep, eat, play with an area to use as his toilet. Cover the bottom of the crate with newspaper, you may want to provide a litter box or a pee pad for him as far from his eat/sleep area as possible. Although I'm new to yorkies I've had dogs my whole life and crates are the best way to go when you can't be around! When you are around be vigilant and encourage him to go outside! He will get the idea, also I always use a command when I want my dogs to GO, I say 'hurry up' and they know what I mean, sometimes even if they don't need to go, they will squat and try their best! Bless em!!! |
