I just got my puppy, Belle - she's 16 weeks. I tried the pee pads with my last little Yorkie & she continued to pee where the pads were originally - forever! I did everything to get her to go outside later & she was persistent about peeing where the pee pads were when she was a puppy. So this time I will not get my puppy hooked on the pads. I'm going to try all the suggestions I find here (thnx!!) & be a patient mommy. Belle (maybe the bell will work) is the 5th Yorkie I've had & the first time I've only had one - the other 4 were in pairs. I find that each dog has their own little personality & quirks (none have come from puppy mills). However, more confusing than housebreaking a Yorkie: navigating this site!
but I am patient
. Can anyone tell me what the book Housebreaking In 7 Days by Shirley Somebody is based on?
