Now, I have a question - he went to the vet and got everything checked out and got his necessary inoculations and things - what does it mean when he scrapes his little bum on the ground after he goes? He did that yesterday and had one heck of a mess I had to put on gloves and give him a soak in warm water to get him cleaned off (looked like a freaking eeeny meeeny cow patty stuck to his bum). Then today we saw him do the sit and slide thing again. Anybody know why??? I don't think he has worms or anything, the vet checked him. Is it just his way of getting clean?
While I am on this subject, what was the best way you all housetrained your yorkies?? I just watch him ALL the time but he has had a couple accidents. I take him out after waking, half hour after eating, exercising, every half hour in general I just take him out to go.
Sorry, this turned into several questions...
Oh, and one other thing, is it normal for a puppy this age to be humping ALREADY????? |
He appears to need his anal glands expressed.
How old is he? In general and on an average to expect 100% success until approximately 6 months old. Yorkies are toy dogs and are going through so many changes, teething, growing, etc. and have the attention span of an ameba. Just keep on doing what you're doing he'll eventually get it.
