I really don't think I was lazy and believe me I didn't laugh it off -- cried my eyes out most of the time. Even after he seemed to get inside/outside, Charlie still had accidents. Oliver never has. It sounds like you are fortunate enough to have gotten an "Oliver" and that's very lucky for you. I wouldn't have believed a Yorkie would be hard to train either if Oliver was my only dog. A "Charlie" might come into your life someday and proove you wrong
Max is an Oliver. Zero problems. Teddy was older and fully trained when he came to me, zero problems. I have thought about adding a third dog, but I am afraid my luck would run out and I would get a Charlie.

It is very interesting that your boys are from the same litter and were raised under the same circumstances, yet demonstrated very different results in potty training.
