It does seem like he is being rebellious. I believe he is just wanting attention and that is the way he gets it. Don't make the wet newspapers a big deal. Like when you come home do you call his attention to them and scold him? Believe me, I would want to. LOL But, if he thinks this peeing everywhere is getting your attention he will continue doing it. I think he is "marking his territory" and being very bold to see what you will do. Unfortunately, boldness and stubbornness are two traits of a Yorkie.
I think I would try getting one of those astroturf mats to replace all the newspapers and see what he does with that. I would rather have 1 mat to clean than an entire floor of wet newspapers.
I wish you all the best. |
