Rizzo is both indoor and outdoor trained, meaning he knows to use his piddle pads when inside and he has a potty emergency, but he does prefer to go outside. He doesn't poop indoors (unless it's an emergency) and even then it's a rare occurrence. Basically, giving your dog an "indoor option" is like providing a litter box for a cat, sure you may prefer to not have them going inside, but it's better that they have a specific location to go to, rather than on your costly rug. |
Def take him to the vet and get the urinalysis done, he might have a UTI. Snickers had one and he couldn't help but go everywhere, even on his way to the door to let me know, he would squat and pee b/c he had to and had a UTI. If that is ruled out, then it is his instinct to mark. Is he lifting his leg?? Also, as for the crate situation, is there anyone that can come home for lunch and let him out?? Thankfully my husband is able to and has been doing it for the past 2.5 yrs since we got our 1st yorkie Snickers and it helps a TON with the potty training and teaching them to only go outside. I know many people cannot come home in the middle of the day, and if you can't--I highly recommend the potty pads, they just can't hold it. :) Viv |
I am a new yorkie mommy too;). I have a teacup yorkie weighing in at 13 oz. I had a baby play pen that I lined with wood Flooring on bottom and it has room for his bowls, puppy pad in a litter box, and a cylinder cat hut ( which he loves!). My DH calls it his condo, lol. So far so good and it takes little space and portable. |
