Unfortunately I think there are way too many people out there breeding yorkies that have absolutely no idea how to raise "pets" for people because they give the puppies NO attention and then expect the puppies to learn when we get them after they are already programmed.


First off, let me mention to you that a Yorkshire Terrier is one of the
hardest dogs to housetrain. Some never "Get It".
Pet Store puppies are no different than breeder puppies when it comes
to house training I would also like to add. Buddy was from a pet store
and I got him at 14wks. Within 4 wks he was fully housetrained and has
never peed or pooped in the house since then and he is now 6yrs old.
Please have patience. Purchasing a puppy from a breeder does not mean
your going to get a housebroken puppy. The amount of money you spend
also does not get you a housebroken puppy. Your puppy is an infant.
It is important to be consistant, give lot's of love and praise.
You have been given great information and hopefully it will help you to get
the puppy trained.
Your not alone, so hang in there. Bad habits can be broken.
