REALLY tough time potty training-PLEASE HELP Dear friends,
I am hoping some of you yorkie lovers can share some of your potty training wisdom with me. I am having a VERY hard time potty training my 9 month old baby. When I got him at 2 months old, I trained him on wee-wee pads and eventually outside (I never really crated him, I tried-but he cried and hated it and it broke my heart and he would pee in his crate and have no problem sleeping on his pee-seems strange, but he didn't care one bit, so I stopped using the crate). Now he is trained to go outside when it's nice weather and inside when it's pouring and in the winter when it snows. However, he seems to think every rug in my house is a wee-wee pad!! I have pulled all the rugs out of my house and he sometimes is good about using the wee-wee pad, but 8 times out of 10 he misses the pad and I have to clean pee mess constantly. I am now 7 months pregnant and want him to be somewhat trained once my baby arrives because with a newborn and baby Louie messes, I am going to go insane!! I am so tired these days and cleaning up his pee constantly is hard! Does anyone have any suggestions, am I doing something wrong here???? Also, he pees constantly....sometimes every 10 minutes, is this normal?? Thank you for letting me vent! I love my baby and I just want him to be trained properly so that we can spend more time playing together and less time with me on my hands and knees cleaning pee mess.
