My little Apple is 4 1/2 months old...Her schedule w/the puddle pads is to do GREAT for about a week, and then out of the blue, she'll wet on the carpet...What is THAT!!! lol...I "remind" her that isn't a good thing (as Martha would say) and she gets it, and starts back on the pads...I think, as time goes by, she's gonna get it all the time, and we'll all be fine...Your little baby is new, w/a short attention span...Keep encouraging her, and scold the heck out of her (only when you catch her in the act), and she'll get it...No different from a 2 yr. old skin-kid....it takes time and patience, but they, usually, all get it...Your baby is a doll-face...These yorkies are AMAZING, don't'cha think! Love, Maggie & Apple
