I have read every tread on this website and at least 20 others on potty training before I asked these common questions. I read books, watch videos, etc constantly. I have done my homework, at least I thought so.
I have no problem with my maltese whom I first got when she was 3 months old. She was in confined area with training pad but she missed at lot. However, she only soiled her bed once, mine twice, but that's it for 2 months (she's 5 months old now). My yorkie is the tough one, she would chew on training pad (which my malese now started to do that after she watched what her little sister did), and make sure that she soiled all over the floor plus my bed.
I really want to be able to sleep with them everyday, because they are so cute. I feel really bad when maltese sleeps with me and yorkie in the crate (she has learned a lot more about crate being her bed and not soiled since two days ago). Yes, patience, I know. I am learning that from all the mess...lol
KJLive, to your problem, I recommend using "TellBell" from Amazon.com. They work great and you can also put the two bells in different locations so the dog can learn to ring one for potty and one for play. Read the reviews, a lot of people did that. I do have one myself and had trained my 5 yrs old chihuahua to use it, really great product!
Thanks again!
By the way, can anyone tell me when their hair will grow out of black? |
Thanks for the great recommendatin. Unfortunately, I already tried the bell. That's in another thread on here somewhere

It was a disaster. The first time my DH rang it, she cowered. Then about 2 weeks after it she came in from going potty and was all excited and accidentally sat on the bell and it rang. Scared the living bejesus out of her! It was funny to watch though, I must say. We used a desk style bell. Can't use the hanging bells as I have three cats. No need to explain that one any further! LOL
