Default Crates and xpens

Castor Pollux has a crate home, but I didn't use it for potty training (bc I can't even think of him being locked up somewhere, but thats just my craziness bc crates are really good for a doggy-- Castor Pollux loves his crate, its his home all decorated with pink padding and pictures of me I just don't close the door)
Pee pads work wonders. I get the kind that say it attracts dogs and he pees on that pretty well, as far as poop. He just pooped where ever for about a week and I just kept picking up the poop and putting it on the pad. After a week he figured out thats where it belonged.
I think your baby will be fine. Doggies all have different personalities just like people so maybe you boo is just shy. Your baby will be fine and love you to pieces and be more yorkie like as soon as she makes up her mind whats ok to do.
My yorkie was a little reserved the first day and the trainer said that yorkies were bred for companionship (and hunting rats) but hunrint rats among people so they want to make people happy so they'll take some time to feel it out and not do much until they're sure that they won't upset you.
