I hve had my 3 year old for three weeks. I have a tri-level home, and no fence so I must take her out about every three hours. No problem now, as I love yard work.
But, in those three weeks I had to be gone for 4 hours, so I put her in the laundry room thinking it would be cruel to crate her as I know her little bladder probably could not hold out until I returned. From what little I know, dogs don't go potty in their crates, unless absolutely necessary.
So, I put her in the laundry room, with paper and when I got home, she had gone on the paper. Yahoo!
I am also wondering what will happen this winter as we get lots of snow here.
If she would go on paper, I would be thrilled as I cannot imagine getting all bundled up every time I have to take her outside.
But, I will do what is necessary as she is very much worth it.

ALso, does anyone kno if you can train a Yorkie to go in a kitty litter box (is that the same as doggie litter??). I have a cat, so can my cat share the same litter box as a Yorkie? One last thing, do Yorkies spray around the house like cats?? My cat seems to do that and it stinks up the house pretty bad!! PLease help!! thanks!! |
