How can I get him... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

vainchick5 · 04-12-2007, 08:34 AM

to also pee on the grass? He pees on the pads but when I take him outside he just kinda sniffs around and hops in the grass like a bunny

I tried putting a pad out there, but he just hops off of it, cause it probably feels weird especially if the grass is long, he kinda sinks into the pad..loool..So how can I get him to pee in the grass? Coco pees a million times in the grass so I thought he would follow suit. He's 6 months old right now.

sorry nobella i have no grass where is live,, just beach sand... if you keep
taking him out there, sooner or later he will go...and then praise him
to no end.. good luck

hmmmmmmmmmmm sorry I'm no help. Mine use pads...but Timmy will also pee outside. He marks every tree in my yard

Mimi on the other hand is the same way your baby is....she refuses to use the bathroom outside. She could be outside for 1 hr and when I bring her in she goes straight to the pad. I never figured out why and how either.

Eventually come to them, it was winter when I brought Charlie and Henry home and we had to shovel a spot in the driveway, and Henry now still prefers to do his job on the cement, but they both ventured out to the grass too...We started a trip around the block sometimes after work and I think the sniffing and experiencing the grass elsewhere helps...Good Luck, yml

Like I have them play in my parents grass for over an hour just playing and I assume he will go but he never does

Maybe I should take him out during major potty time for him like in the morning, or in the evening

They have to go first thing in the morning so it may be a time to use alot of praise and take a treat outside w/ you...Mine know they get treat for "Poddy Outside" "Good Boyz" and when we go in they run straight to the pantry...

what I do is to take Leeloo right after she eats and every 2 or 3 hours....(she is 3 months) and wait....

sometimes they take a long time.
This definitely takes dedication...at least boys gives u a heads up because they sniff around....Leeloo doesn't do that u can never tell she wants to go!!!
Hang in there it will happen
