When we first started making progress - just about two weeks ago - I decided really quickly that she was getting treats and getting praise for going ANYWHERE as long as it was outside the house! Sidewalk, patio, even the front porch! I can hose those off in just a minute or two, and it's a major relief to not have puppy potty all over the house! (Though I have to be honest about it - other than offending our sensabilities, just how big a mess can a 3-lb Yorkie make?) |
