Peeing and POOPING int he crate - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Yorkies are very difficult to potty train (well most of them anyway). It is just how it is. I put Ellie in a carrier that she could just turn around in once and she peed on herself. She pees and poops in her regular crate also so I rarely use it. She pees when I shut her in a bedroom. She has separation anxiety problems, so she urinates when we're gone. Ellie is six YEARS old. She knows where to go but sometimes just doesn't do it. She also goes inside in the middle of the night when nobody is up to take her out. It happens and I don't care. I love her anyway. That is the chance you take when you get a Yorkie. My advice is to get tile or wood floors and no carpet. Just keep training and see what happens.

Yes, of course, he eats at 8 and at about 10 to 15 minutes after feeding time the food is normally empty, if there is any left I remove it pronto. And I dont water after 9pm

Water should be available 24/7 as far as i'm concerned.

How is a 5-6 month old puppy not a puppy?? Where is it written that a dog MUST be trained by a certain age?? Obviously this puppy isnt happy is his environment..I cant say I would be either...you totally have no compassion. Where is his belly band?? You had said at one point you had belly bands and that your "husband" and bought sanitary pads for them..hmmmm?? Im positive this is another case of someone just TRYING to jerk our chain...If there is a dog why not give him a chance in another home..if there isnt a dog and this is just a game...give it up already..
