 This puppy stage is not easy!
Am I the only one going crazy between the teething process and potty training? Bentley has lots of toys yet I cant seem to get him to let go of my hands!! Its honestly painful, the teeth are very sharp. Then for the potty training I'm trying to teach him to use the wee wee pads the same way I taught my Chihuahuas to with positive reinforcement. As a Psychology student I was always taught that if the dog has already finished going the bathroom even if you tell him no he will have no idea what he did wrong because they are not capable of connecting the action to something he did wrong. So unless I'm catching him in the action I don't tell him no. I don't know if this is wrong or right because I'm not being consistent every time he uses the bathroom. Just want to know how you guys potty trained your yorkies? And what you guys did to cool down the teething? |
