I started my Morkie on pee pads as son as I got her at 12 weeks. It was Jan. in Minnesota and COLD! Belle sleeps in her crate at night and I use to get up with her once during the night to put her on her pee pad to go then back to bed. I keep her crate by my bed and her pee pad is in the den. I have a pee pad holder for it and I also learned that if I put a newspaper on top of the pad (just one big page folder in half) it really saves on pee pads. When Belle pees a lot, I change the paper as she won't pee there again if it's really wet. She was strange about poop'n on the pad though. We finally figured out that she wants a seperate pad to poop on and she does not like to be watched! So, now we have 2 pads and I also put paper on the poop pad. As soon as she poops I pick it up and throw it in the toilet. She has to follow and stand at the toilet to look in and see where it is going!?! She gets a small potty treat as soon as she poops or pees where she is suppose to. She even pees on command now. If we are going somewhere or even to bed, I put her on her pad and tell her to go potty and she does. Sometimes it helps for her to see the treat in my hand. A little incentive never hurt anyone. Good luck and be patient.
