 Training and Potty habits
Hello. I am new to the forum and a new Yorkie mom. I have gotten many tips on the training issues, but have a question about my male yorkie. I am ready to have him neutered as he is 8 mos old. He is pee pad trained but not potty trained yet. Ive tried to have him on a schedule and no matter how often I took him out, he had no clue he was to potty outside. Its raining a lot now (I live in the no west) so he wont go when its raining. I hope having him fixed will help also. He is now lifting his leg instead of squatting. Does anyone know if he will stop this when he is neutered? I do have to have him on a leash until playtime to contain him to the pads and put him in his pen at night. It is confining but dont want my home ruined while he is still being trained. Also, I wonder how to transfer him from pee pads to outdoors totally? They are definately way harder to train than larger breeds. Thanks for any helpful input!
