[Romeo's Mommy]

Hello everyone! I just became a new yorkie mommy of an 8 week old male named, Romeo. I am trying to start the potty training thing but it isnt going so well. I really don't expect much because he is so young. I just needed a little advie. I heard crate training was the best so this is where I began. This is disgusting so brace yourselves. If I leave him in there for any time at all, he poops, pees, etc. but this is not the worst. I guess if he feels he is in there too long, (I never leave him in the crate over 2 hrs.) He will actually try to eat his poop! I dont know?! I know that is terrible, so I switched to potty pads, and he does okay every now and then, but mostly he just goes wherever he pleases. Then, I show him his accident and put him on his pad. He doesnt try to eat the poop unless he is in the crate! Help!! Any suggestions of advice would be greatly appreciated!
