Confused the potty training has gotten worse...

Straszny had been doing fairly well with potty training. He was about 90% peeing on the pads, and he was sadly about 10-20% pooping on them(yes, not so good here). In the last week or so he has been totally ignoring the pee pads, going where EVER he feels like it. He is 3 and a half mo. old...and I don't know what happened! I praised him for good behavior, but I have started again today with giving him tiny treats when he goes on the pee pad. It also seems like he is peeing small puddles a lot instead of a few larger ones...maybe this is a marking act?

(I have just had a MUCH easier time training previous pups...I knew that yorkies were known to be difficult to potty train sometimes, but GEEZ!)

Also, I have a friend going to school to be a vet, and he told me that since I am training Straszny with pee pads (until it gets warmer), he will never learn to go outside. This isn't the case...right?
