I have a 5 yr old female yorkie who was 100% trained to go on the pee pads by 8 months old. Has not had not one accident since then. I now have introduced another little yorkie to our family - a male. We got him when he was 5 months old - he is now 9 months old and have the similar situation as you. I would think that he would love to get praised and given treats but most of the times, when I leave the room (because I still have him gated off) he will go right in front of the gate - as if to say "you are leaving me? - so there". I know that he probably needs more attention or stimulation - so I'll work on that a little more.
Good luck to you (and me - LOL!) |
