2 puppies Hi all. I have 4 month old puppies. Thus far, they have been staying in an exercise pen with a pee pad. It is great for while they are confined, but they don't use it when out of the pen. I am ready to start crate training them. my question, have any of you put 2 puppies in the same crate or do I need to do one crate per puppy? Thanks:D I have 2 older Yorkies, but got at separate times. First time I have done 2 at once and last I might add!:eek: |

yes I think they have us figured out sometimes. My little one is nearly five mths so is still young. I think I have confused her. I have tried to train her on puppy mats. She does do her wee's on them & poo's are between them or a carpet..preferably a persian rug! We go outside often & she has gotten very good & will wee when I tell her but almost never a poo..they are saved for inside. :rolleyes: but as she is kept inside & never allowed out on her own its hard to train her to go out..when she has the urge we may not be thinking or be at home..so also at a loose end. :aimeeyork..Ave |
Haha, I'm too struggling with Mieko potty training as well. I got her for three weeks, she still pee and poo anytime anywhere when she feels like it. If I am at home, every 3 hours I will bring her to the toilet and lock her inside for 3 mins, she will pee inside. These few days I started to give her treats after she pee. Mieko is my second dog. Previously I spent 5 months to toilet train my toy poodle. I hope my yorkie will quickly learn how to do it in the washroom! |
Help Hi! We just got our puppy, Snickers, and we are pad training but I have no idea how to get her to realize the pad is for going potty.....when she has accidents we pick her up and take her to the pad and tell her potty, but she just tries to chew on it :) Any suggestions or advice you may have would be great! |
Hi everyone. I haven't posted in a while, as my Toby was doing good with potty training but now it seems he's forgotten everything again. I've been crate training him and he was good for a week or so, and he didn't pee on my carpet. He'd wait until he gets on the pee pad and go there. But lately he's just-a-peein-everywhere. I tried putting a pee pad in my room too so if he wants to go, he can go there and not on my carpets. But nothing. He doesn't know anything. Should I do the schedule thing where he would just be in the crate most of the time? I really don't want to do that. :( I'm getting really frustrated with potty training. I really don't want to deal with this anymore. :[ I really don't know what to do anymore!:confused::confused::confused: |
Puppy seems to be going backwards I just got a morkie a couple days ago. When she first came home, she would go to the puppy pad and poop and pee in her own. The first day she didn't have an accident. The second day she had one accident so I decided to put her on the pad every 30 min or so. She's been having more and more accidents. I put her on the puppy pad and she won't go. Then she'll run off and immediately pee somewhere else!! I don't get it! If I catch her at it ill tell her no and put her on the puppy pad. I crate her at night but she isn't doing well with that either. She'll pee in her crate if I don't let her out within an hour. Am I doing something wrong. She's 8 weeks old. I know she doesn't have great bladder control and I have to keep working at it but I'm not seeing improvement, she just seems to be getting worse :( I wanna crate her during the day but I'm scared she's gonna pee in there too. I thought they don't like to relieve themselves wherever they sleep? Help please! I'm new to dog ownership |
Potty Traing.. :aimeeyork:aimeeyorkHello everyone, I am no expert. but Hollee is 6 mths old today.. and as I am at home other then out for shopping etc. I put Hollee outside every hour..or when I think of it and she has become very good about doing it outside. If she is in than she goes on her puppy mats. She does have accidents thou..but not so often. So I think the more you take them the quicker they will catch on. I make quite a hype when we are going outside and she runs before me and launches herself off the veranda onto the grass. So funny to watch. I must video her. XA |
Potty training is so hard. I have two male Yorkies, one is 8 and the other is 1yr. I have the small crates with a blanket in one and a towel in the other. One dog keeps peeing on the crates wetting the blanket and towel. I wash them and he does it again. I am so upset with these boys peeing on the crates. We have a yard yet they go on the crates when I am upstairs or out. What to do? I am tired of washing for the dogs! |

I got Max when he was 4 months old and he was never house trained at the breeders. They used a crate as punishment and I have just started to get him to like his new crate (he's 10 months next week!) and house training has been a HUGE problem with me. I just bought the kindle edition of this book and I am going to try it out this weekend when I have 3 days off. Wish me luck!!! Am I too late to house train him? |
I think I've been lurking to long... all these "potty horror stories" are starting to scare me a little bit. We've had dogs before, but never a yorkie. I'm looking into getting one & now I'm a bit worried about the whole potty-training thing. Is it worse if you live in an area where we get "real" winter, since yorkies are so small? I don't want to go the pee pad route, we're outside pottiers all the way. |

Asks to go out - asks to come in - on a rainy day, he dashes out and does what needs to be done and runs back. It is possible! Takes patience and lots of attending to recognizing the "I'm ready to go" signals that are being sent to you. GOOD LUCK! |
Aprilivy, thanks for that! My sister has a shih tzu yorkie mix (Shorkie) but he was apparently pretty easy to train. He would pee a little when he got excited (aka whenever I came over to visit) but he's grown out of it now. He's never had an accident that I know of, at least not when I've pet sit. Does it help if they have a "buddy" to show them that it's good to potty outside? |
Good Morning-new baby training Hello All, I have had Lilly for 3 days, so far potty training is working out except for one thing. First thing in the morning she doesn't make it out side. I take her right out of bed and before I can get to the door she has already gone in the hall. Any suggestions?? Many Thanks:animal-pa |
Carry her to the door and when you get close to it then put her down and let her out. My Sophie wont pee while I'm carrying her, she'll wait until I put her down, maybe it'll be the same with Lilly? |
Thank you!!! I will give it A try in the morning and see how it goes:) |

Thank you everyone-carrying her to the door worked!!! Both dogs went, both numbers, LOL!!! |
Help I have an 8 month old male (Spike), who I thought was pad trained! He has suddenly decided to just "go" wherever he wants. I am at my whits end and feel like my last resort is to crate him. The problem is he has never been crated and I can't get him to go near it!!!! Can anyone please help? oh, also we live on 6 acres so when we let him out he goes crazy ALL over the place and won't "go" outside if we have him on a leash! PLEASE HELP SOMEONE!!!!!!! |
I'm having the same problem. My baby was doing fine from Sun when I got her until now. The one day I carried her to the door worked and after that, its go where ever. I take her out every half hour and she wants nothing to do with it, it is very frustrating but its all consistency and lots and lots of patience. |
Hi, Shadow has been trained since a puppy. She is now 3 years old. We just moved, been here a week. At first she went on her pad just fine. In the last couple of days she has gone everywhere around the pad except on it. I thought it might be the room it was in (laundry room with heater, etc), perhaps the noise. I put it in the hall. I've tried changing the pad, moving the pad, nothing seems to work. Any and all suggestions are welcome!! Thank you. |
THANK YOU SO MUCH I WILL DO THAT... Dante is having the hardest time potty training... he is 15 weeks.. 1lb 15oz ugh.. so hard. |
Frustrated I'm a new owner of a yorkie pup. Jellybean is 12 weeks old and I've had her for a week. The breeder trained her using a pee pad which seemed like a great idea at the time. Now I'm not so sure. Jellybean refuses to pee or poo outside. I bought the 7 day to housebreak book recommended here and we are on day one. My question is, is it normal for a yorkie to not go outside? I take her out constantly and she loves it outside but whines to get back in to pee on the pee pad or rug. I keep her out for an hour and still she immediately pees when she gets back inside. I am just so frustrated. Any advice would be welcome at this time. |
Schedule problem I looked up the How to Housetrain your puppy in 7 days and the schedule for the 6 - 12 months for non-working and working owners is exactly the same. Can someone give a link or post the schedule for the working owner? |
9week old Hello, I have a few questions on the housebreaking. I plan to purchase the book everyone is talking about. I have a 10 Week old male. Is it to early to start training him or putting him On the schedule? Is it true a puppy can't be fully housebroken before 6 months old due to bladder size? |
Im so frustrated with potty training! :( I feel like I\'m a really bad yorkie mom. :| |
Advice needed - housebreaking I have a new puppy, 10 weeks of age. I am housebreaking it and all the links posted here are very helpful. He knows what to do when I take him outside to potty; however; he hates wet grass. The season is changing fast in Alberta, Canada; and I am not sure what I will do when it starts snowing. He seems confused when I try to get him to go on training pads. any advice is appreciated!! Thanks :aimeeyork |
Getting nervous about housetraining After reading all of the frustrations people are having with housebreaking, I am getting really nervous about the puppy we are getting in a few weeks. We have had 6 Yorkies in the past with no housebreaking issues, probably because we owned both parents, puppies were here with us and housetraining started probably quite a bit earlier as a result. I am also concerned because the breeder does a good job of starting them on wee wee pads, but we have a tiny doggie door and this is what I would like our puppy to learn to use. The only issues we ever had with accidents did not occur until kidney failure occurred later in iife. Any suggestions? Thanks, Cathie |
I\'ve had my Miyoko 2 months and the problem with him is he won\'t go on the pee pad...me acknowledges my other commands but go potty... He will sit on that pad and sit.. And not go. But if I walk out the bathroom he will get off and pee else where or poop...this even after sitting nearly an hour with him... He so honorary he wil slightly tuck his bottom and pee if he thinks I\'m not watching him... When I do mid stream and put him on the pad it\'s like he turns it off....and will just sit there... I\'ve purchased treats for him of which he eats none of them.. Ever so annoyed after 6 weeks and hours of sitting...oh he will go in his crate before that pad... |
dog Get used to accidents on occasion. Yorkies are so cute but some of them are hard to train. My JoJo is unpredictable. Most of the time, real good yet I think he gets mad when I leave him and he pees on his bed pad. I threaten to get him a pee band and wrap his tummy in it.That little stinker will pee on the table leg. Not always though. He is so cute he is forgiven. This is the life of a dog lover-clean it up and go on. If you yell all he hears is Blah Blah JoJo. I hope you can overlook the fault and love the dog no matter what. |
