| I think Natures Miracle is a God send but I have also used the peroxide method and it works so its all in the preference of the person. I am lucky, i have mostly hard woods throughout my house so only one room with carpet to worry about and that is my craft room. But occasionally (since Memphis still has an oops once in awhile) i walk around the house with the natures miracle in a spray bottle and mist the floors in case there was a spot that I didn't clean well enough and there is still an odor that he can detect. |

| I have to check that Nature's Miracle stuff out. Stewie tries to potty #2 in the bathroom too much now. I bet he can still hear it despite my use of bleach.

| Welcome to YT. Our little Maggie is 10 weeks old. We started out crate training her. Had her area choked down in her crate to where she had enough room to lie down or turn around. After about three nights, she was sleeping all night. We were so impressed for such a young baby. Well, one day I decided to wash her blankies. They were wet. That little Pee Pot was weeing in her crate. I now leave her crate door open and put a wee pad on the kitchen floor. She really does sleep all night now and the wee pad is always dry in the morning. We have her on a very strict schedule, until we get her housetrained. She if fed 4 times a day. Morning, lunch, dinner and a light snack before bedtime. She get her Nutrical in the morning and before bedtime. She gets to go pee outside in the morning before I get to. We take her outside every two hours, after she eats, upon waking and after playtime. She has caught on very quickly. Still not to be trusted all the way. Sometimes she forgets that she is playing on carpet and not the grass. She can squat super fast. We pick up her food at night. She goes to bed at 8:30 and up at 6am. Knock on wood if we can keep up with this. She is living with two retired parents. Been a long time since we had a baby in the house. Even getting down on the floor to play isn't as easy as it once was. Good luck with your baby. |

| We walk our yorkies 3 or 4 times a day. My youngest will hold her business until we come back in and slip off and do it in the house. I've tried keeping her in the kennel but that hasn't work. Help!!!! |

| I'm no pro at housetraining by a long shot, but learning quickly. Sounds like maybe you need to confine your youngest one in an area that has tile. I purchased the Wizdog from www.wizdog.com I only use it when it's pouring down rain. Maggie doesn't mind it at all. So far, so good. |

| I just sprayed my entire house with this mixture and already notice that there isn't a smell at all. Thanks everyone for the suggestion.

| Wizdog bstroud, the wizdog is a tray with a grid on top. Under the grid is where you would put some newspaper or wee pad. They use it just like using newspaper or wee pads on the floor, except they don't get their feet in it and they can't chew up the newspapers. When they poo on it, the poo it on top of the grid. Just pick up the grid, dump off the poo and you are all set for the next wee, or poo. Maggie sometimes misses getting completely squared on her wee pad and the tinkle runs across the kitchen floor, then she steps in it. She never misses getting positioned just right on the wizdog. Here is the site again, if you want to check into it. www.wizdog.com |

| Hey I just checked out that wizdog thing and it seems pretty neat.... I might have to get one when I get a yorkie. Memphis uses pee pads when we travel but he goes out to potty outside when we are home (usually ) Your baby is very cute Stitches |

| Reconsmama, What kind of baby do you have? Thank you for the compliment. People that see her say that she doesn't look real. She has the cutest baby doll face I have ever seen. Of course I may be bias, since I'm the Mama. |

LOL!! Me too! For the peroxide mixture- this may be a stupid question, but does it have to be Dawn brand soap? | |

| Yes it has to be the original blue dawn soap or it doesn't work as well. |
