Even Victoria Stillwell said Yorkies can be the most difficult to housetrain...they are so self-willed.
I have trained many..had many 100% trained...so I think I can train a Yorkie..but I have had some who were impossible to trust..my Pinkie is one...as long as she remains on tile, we are fine, never pees on tile, vinyl or wood...but when she sees carpets she pees...fortunately here in south FLorida I only have tile, but a couple rooms have area rugs...I have worked and worked with this girl who is spayed and 5, health, head hard as a tank...nothing works...so she wears parlor panties when in these areas...
What do you advise...how can I get her to stop..she will pee and then go get in her pen because she knows it is time out for her...if I see her sitting in her pen, I go looking for a wet spot...no one yells at her, spanks her..I show her I am unhappy, she apologizes and kisses me...and has this look..."DID I DO THAT?"
She uses the wee wee pads just fine...so giving her a treat when she does it means nothing..she uses them all day...but let her walk from the kitchen to the master bredroom and she must squat on an area rug...I have taken them up and replaced with new many times...makes no difference..pees on the new one...so I have decided this is her one small fault and since I have many faults and she loves me, I will accept her and love her....
BUT...seriously OP how would you handle Pinkie...? |
