Hello again,
Let me start as saying I am a 2nd time Yorkie mom. My Secret passed away Aug 04, 2016. With him I felt I did everything wrong. He wasn’t potty trained still by the age of 5 1/2 when he passed. I was told I confused him because I used pads and took him outside. I baby him so much as a puppy he was very Dependent on me (would not move unless I did) which then turned into obsession. A friend told me it almost seem like He was my master or at least that’s what he thought. I enrolled him in puppy training classes around 3 to five months so he did tricks and basic commands without treats. I thought he respected me. Now I got Miss Cali Oct 8th 2017. And I already feel like I’m doing something wrong. She sleeps in her kennel at night without whining and when she does wine I wait till she stops before I take her out so to teacher her I won’t take her out only because she’s crying (I think i’m Doing that right.) Her Breeder told us that she was teaching her to use puppy litter which I thought was an awesome idea and I thought I knew what I was doing. I made a puppy apartment which Cali lives on one side and there’s a divider with the hole in it that she can walk through to the other side to use the litter box. When she’s not in her kennel I take the litter box out and place it next to the kennel so that she can use the potty when she’s playing. But I’ve noticed in the last two days that she is not always Relieving her self in the litter box. What am I doing wrong I’m teaching her how to sit at 10 wks old and she kinda has it she also seems recognize her name. I’m also not treating her like a baby like I did with Secret. I need advice and encouraging words right now because I feel like I don’t know what I’m doing right now.
