Gunnar was neutered at 6 months. He still squatted for about another month and then started lifting his leg about an inch off of the floor.(cute!) He still does that. He is pee pad trained and rarely misses. Outside, he does lift his leg, but not every two steps like my dad's Maltese (who is not neutered). Gunnar is my lovebug!

Remy is 14 months and not fixed. He has been lifting his leg since about 6 months. He does not mark inside, which includes my home, the office, my parents and a good friend who are his sitters.

His is (or was) pee-pad trained. During training he has two places in my house where he frequently had accidents, but with a great deal of policing we broke those habits. Anyhow, since he turned 1 year old it is almost like he decided he "outgrew" pee-pads and refused to use them. He just held it until I took him outside. Now our routine is entirely outside.

When he was using pee pads, he did lift his leg. In order to manage that, I bought human incontinence pads (for in-bed use). They are a lot bigger than doggies pee pads. The pad was located in my bathroom, and would be folded halfway up the doorway, to form an "L". Worked perfectly, he never missed.

Overall, potty training with him has been actually very easy. Not at all consistent with the "yorkie reputation"

Rily is 6 months old and neutered. He has never lifted his leg. I haven't had a big problem with him marking. He is about 75% pee pad trained. I did have to change where the pad is because he seemed to prefer the laundry room instead of my bathroom.

The neutering has helped with the humping, as well.

Thanks for all the info. The guy who has these pups had a blue one and knowing the situation with these little ones I would like to get him and give him a good home. That is if they will let me have him. Bells would love to have a little dog to play with. Her brother is a BIG outside dog lol. She will be a year old when the pup is ready (December). So wish me luck!!

Instead of being born black and tan it's a blueish gray. Do a search for blue yorkie pup on yorkietalk and read about it. Alot of info on these little ones.
