Anyway the trainer put us on a schedule so that it would be easier to monitor her potty times. She eats at 8AM, 1PM, and last at 6PM.Anyway to make a long long long story short I can basically pinpoint when she needs to go in the morning but after she gets that first meal all hell breaks lose. I want to we wee pad train her so in the winter we don't have to go outside. I have the wee wee pads set up in the bottom of an empty closet I keep the door open constantly & I have the baby gate up so she can't get out. Gia will start going potty in a place where she is not supposed to I will pick her up & bring her to the area where she is supposed to go (this is something the trainer told me to do) and Gia will hold it & won't go. I've kept her in there up to an hour & she won't go she'll wait until I take her out to go to potty where she is not supposed to go (The beds, the carpet, the bathroom floor, the rugs).I hear myself yelling at her & I feel bad (and the trainer told me not to yell at her).What do I need to do????
How long have you had this puppy? Yorkie puppies should still be with their litter mates and mother till they are at least 12 weeks. It is a sad thing that you are loosing your temper and yelling at such a little baby. Maybe if your puppy was 11 months I could see calling in a trainer but your baby is normal and potty training comes in time, it does not happen over night. Puppies are a big commitment and they grow up so fast. Enjoy this time with your baby as it does not last long enough.
