Jennifer -
The first few weeks are the hardest. I cried and cried and felt hopeless about my fate as a Yorkie owner (or Yorkie OWNED, as they say). Believe me, it gets much better.
Stewie is 6 mos old and is pee pad trained in my house (has some accidents at other's houses, like my mom's) I did the same thing you are planning to do with a big crate. Mine was wire & 2' x 3'. I put a pee pad on one end and food, water, bed, etc on the other end. He went on the pad 100% of the tiem when he was in there because he wouldn't pee where he sleeps/eats.
I'm glad you found Yorkie Talk. There are a lot of great people here who can be very humorous and love to give advice. I hope you stick around.
