Default Doctor said no crate

Here is a story for you..We crated my yorkie at night when he first got home and he was very good in it and slept through the nite.Well he ended up getting a urinary track infection, from holding it and it was scarey taking a puppy to the ER at 12 midnight...He would not stop peeing..The doctor actually said Yorkies have too small of bladders to crate them. That is how they get infections. So we started to let him have the bathroom and hallway with the wee wee pad and had a gate up so he could see us...He is now 6 months old and we no longer have him confined to the bathroom at nite. He roams the bedroom with the wee weepad in the bathroom. During the day he has the kitchen, eating area and bathroom..He loves it!!!He takes time and patience..You will be fine!!
