It was a real cause for concern for these new Yorkie owners, until they realized Tinkerbell was "fibbing" just to get the green bean reward!.....Run to door, ring the bell, go outside and squat, run in circles with excitement as mommy and daddy clap and lavish with praise, race to the kitchen for green bean reward, go play for 15-30 minutes, repeat process! I just adore these babies!!!!

Yeah Brandi has done the same thing . Brandi did the whole fake pee thing to just to get a treat. Boy did my baby outsmart me. She had me all excited that I was training her correctly only to find out that she was faking it. Once I realized that she was associating the squatting with getting a treat, I changed my technique a little bit.
