I'm having problems potty training my 3month Yorkie, Napoleon. I've had him for 3 weeks. One of the problems is that he poops many times a day, but just a bit at a time. For an example, half an hour after he eats, I take him out... He will attempt to poop several times by going into his "pooping stance"... sometimes something will come out, other times, nothing. Then I bring him in after 30-45 mins. An hour or so later, he might poop again in his crate or in my living room or outside on patio. This happens several times throughout the day and night. Does anyone have this problem with their Yorkie? I haven't changed his diet. He eats dry food. It is not uncommon for him to poop several times a crate in his crate while I'm sleeping.

What can I do? Will he grow out of this?
