potty training is almost impossible otherwise

I beg to differ actually. I've had my Yorkie for almost a year and a half and by the time he was 3 1/2-4 months old he was house broken and 'Potty' trained. He would go by the door when he wanted to go outside and we'd let him out to do his business and he'd go and come back in when he was done playing outside. He hasn't had an accident in the house since, well there has been the odd excited tinkle on the floor but no major on purpose peeing. Potty training itsn't totally impossible, I guess maybe it depends on the dog, I don't know but my dog was easy to house break. My vet told me that leaving pee pads down in different rooms in the house was just going to confuse my dog because thats what I was going to do with him but she said that by doing that it would take a lot longer to house break him.
My adivce, don't give up on taking him outside, he'll learn evenutally or if he doesn't and continues to pee in the house then litter train him.
