Hi - the ONLY way I've gotten my yorkies potty trained was to babygate them in my bathroom (I have 4) and put piddle pads down. If you are letting your baby have full run of your home that is where you are making your mistake. A baby is taught from birth from its mama not to soil its den. If you are willing to either crate them or baby gate them into an area, you'll probably never get them potty trained unless you stay at home all day and monitor them 24/7 and even then it might not work. There are several threads on this site on how to crate train. I have never crated my dogs as I cannot see putting them in such a small area for hours at a time and not being able to really move around so that is why I baby gate them when I am gone. When I am home, they do have full run of the house. But you've only had yours for 2 weeks and I'm here to tell you that it will take months or more to potty train. Patience, persistence and consistency. Just type in potty training in our search bar and you will get alot of good information ok? Good Luck and plan on this potty training to take awhile, especially since yours is older.
