Unfortunately, he has full run of the house and don't see a point to enclose him anywhere while we are doing our own thing in the house or away.

A lot of errors I think were made by the fact that as he went on the pee pad he was always one to roll over after a Good Boy! and rub his belly, but as he went in my rooms or on my carpet he was disciplined and shortly thereafter decided to roll over and pee or walk really low in a crawling form and pee his life away.

At the end it became too much on my pregnant wife and myself as he began to pee all over the place, walls, doorways a foot away from the pee pad, everything was very accessible to him but I think the discipline became too much for him.

So we decided to take a chance and give him to a good friend of mine and his family and see some changes in him, so maybe a change of pace might be the best thing for him and a new environment,

I still have my female, which i might add is a great Yorkie, and needs no babysitting, goes by herself to the pee pad, has full access to the home and NO accidents (knock on wood) lol
One of our main purposes was to get her a play mate, but for some reason the day he went away we thought shed go into a depression....... turns out were wrong, she's happier then ever!!

Thanks again everyone for ur comments and advice, its great to hear everyone out and be able to read all the great comments!
Sorry you had to rehome him, this is a major cause of rehoming and I always hope people will learn the rules of housebreaking from the beginning. It’s not clear from what you wrote, but you do understand there’s a difference between marking and peeing? Was you male neutered? Since you also have a female, it’s very likely your male was marking. If he's not neutered tell the new family to get him neutered.
