 My dog is too attached to her potty pads
I have a 6 month old yorkie. She is trained a little to well to go potty on her pad. She hasnt had a mistake in a good month. The problem is she will not go potty outside. She'll hold it a good two hours (which is when i loose my patience). When i take her outside she'll want to play and eat leaves so i take her back inside and she goes straight to her pad and starts circling. I run to pick her up and take her out to the grass and say go potty and nothing........... Take her back, wait a little then she runs to her pad, so i do the same thing. This will go on for a half of day literally. I tell myself she cant hold it forever but she can. What to do? What kind of dog doesnt want to go to the bathroom outside? My trainer says i have to go to a park all day until she pee's. I dont have this time to just sit at a park for 8 hours because thats how long my dog can hold it. PLease help, im sooooo frustrated.
