Hi everyone, I am new to the community and so happy to have everyone's helpful advice.
I have a new yorkie that is only 9 weeks old. I have been training her on the potty pads in the bathroom, which is where I leave her whenever I can't watch her. Somedays, I am so impressed that she goes over to her potty pad all by herself and does her buisness...which I always follow with lots of praise...but then the next day she will go all over the carpet. One day she is an angel and the next I feel like all I am doing is cleaning up after her. Everytime I catch her starting to go on the carpet I pick her up and take her to the potty pad but then she won't pee...ugh!!! I don't understand how she selectively choses when to pee on her potty pad and when the carpet is just fine.
Is she just too young to get this down yet??? I have read in a few places that I should not expect her to be trained before 6 months, is it just because she is too young to get?
Thank you!
