Thanks! Im going to try the bottle I also heard of an empty bottle with pennies in it..?? I will try just about anything!

Yep....in a can I think so it makes loads of noise!!! I even tried one sharp blast on a whistle - I'm sure Harry thinks I've started his own personal band!! :D Good luck with it all...and everything crossed!! :) Sally + Harry x

All I can say is take him out more often...I think that's what Peanut is trying to tell you. lollll

Momo lifts his leg when he pees, so I have a water bottle wrapped w/pee paper propped up on top of their pee pad against the wall in the bathroom. He always goes there, it's kinda like his 'post'.

Nicky did this after me being positive he had gotten the "outside for potty" instructions. I narrowed down most of the reasons I think this happened...Some times it was something that scared him in the backyard, like the crazy winds we get up here (once it turn a large glass table upside down). Other times it was just too unbelievably cold outside, or he was sick.

One time Nicky did the same your baby did; he looked at me, lifted his leg and did it right there. I said 'no, baby, no' and I carried him outside while he continued to wee-wee and leaving a trail behind.

I realized that when he goes #2 outside, I make a party and I wasn't doing the same thing when he went #1. So I started to do an even bigger party when he went wee-wee as well. Now he goes out for potty even in the freezing rain ;) Poor baby, he shakes when he returns cold and wet :(

I used the spray bottle on a neighbor's large doggie, once. He kept escaping the neighbor's house, coming over and wee-weeing on my two little ones in the face (Nini caught an eye infection). My other neighbor yelled at me not to do that, but I was already feeling like a monster after I done it...I don't know why :confused: Point is, the water spray didn't work on my neighbor's doggie, he still escapes at least 3x a month and wee-wees on my babies. And praise did work wonders on Nicky :D

I hope you find the way :thumbup:

Lol does MoMo sometime lift his leg so high he looses his balance? PNUT does lol!!

Well Dh made a potty area for Pnut, he bought a semi large kennel and stuck it against on of our side doors and we keep the door open so he can go in and out- we thought this would work- lol for the most part it does, but he does still have accidents!

Lol- I hope so too- I'm def going to get some diff cleaning products- maybe I'm not cleaning it up good :/

Either of them would be a good idea. But it is a can not a bottle that you use for the pennies. Try one if it doesn't work try the other.

I have had simular situation.... cant help but wonder why they do it. A quick correction and right off to the appropriate potty area works well. As far as where to put him in a time out that can be hard.

I do use my cage for time outs but only when they have not been too harshly reprimanded vocaly or they will like you say associate that area in a bad light.

I have some useful tips on my site that might be helpful including the shaker can.

Ah thank you, I will check out your website! It is so frustrating to deal with, and I know a lot of it is my fault bc I am not good at disciplining him. We had some rain too a couple days ago- he will not go in the rain, nor if the ground is wet!! I think I just have to put my game face on and get serious!! No more Nice Mommy!! LoL. I am going to clean the floors, get a squirt bottle and can of pennies, and try to really watch him- take him out randomly every half hour and make sure he goes!!

I will need to figure out where a good time out spot is.. I guess I can only use the time out when I catch him in the act.. right? If I come across pee it is too late?

The crazy thing is if I am watching him like a hawk he will be sooooo good not one accident, but when I start lacking he has accidents. Then I think about it.. am I going to have to watch him like a hawk 24/7 or will he ever be 100% LOL That’s the million dollar question I guess.

I'm glad I didn't offend you! :D I would not use his crate or his pack-n-play for timeout. Maybe put him in a bathroom and close the door (with lights on of course). I would just use the white vinegar on the peepee. It will clean AND nutralize the odor PLUS leave an acid scent behind which you can substitute as your pee. What you are telling Peanut is that it is your cabinet, not his.

hahaha! Yes! Sometimes he looses balance & has to position himself again lmboooo!
I remember one time, he lifted his tiny leg & was going to pee by the corner of the bathroom entrance. I ran over saying 'No! No! bad boy' & w/out hesitating, I cupped my hand under & collected his pee!

:D Not at all! I can’t even really blame him for these potty issues, I am sure DH and I are full to blame! Ok the bathroom is a good idea! I know he has peed on the bath mats though… What can I wash those with to get the pee out? (They are brown) I never heard of using the white vinegar to clean up pee!! That is great, I am going to Target tonight so I am going to pick up some! I read you use 50% water 50% white vinegar..? Is that how you make it? Thank you for all your help! Mark my words ladies… Peanut boot camp has started!!

LoL MoMo sounds like Peanut!! That is so funny when they do that!! I swear these boys!! OMG what a little terd! You have all your babies pad trained? I had Peanut pad trained when we lived in the apt. Then we bought a house, I told DH we have a nice gated backyard- Peanut is going to learn to go outside. I thought it would take a little bit, but he would love to go outside so he can pee and lift his little leg every where! Well, not so much!! LoL I would forget to take him out, so he would just pee where ever he wanted. He wouldn’t even wait by the door- nothing. I don’t let him out there by his self bc of coyotes and hawks so it was kinda hard.

Then DH bought a large dog kennel and stuck it against the door. We have like a French door and it has a door in the middle and then to little side doors, those just open with a screen . Dh used one side and cut the screen to make a little door so he can go in and out and be protected. He loves it- he has a little grass and little concrete, and he loves to lift his leg all over it! He was doing pretty good, till it rained the other day. I think that is what started this whole thing! DH needs to get like a tarp to put on it when it rains… So that’s where we are at. I know he knows that is where he goes, he knows how to get out ( when we are home the door is always open) I think he just gets lazy or something- Who really knows what goes on in these spoiled yorkies head!! Haha!

You are welcome.

Beleive me that day will come . . It will take some time and a lot lot of training and being right on him every minute. I would not hesitate to put his little butt out there in the rain and wet ground.If not you are creating a bigger problem in the long run. I did with all four of mine. At this age when they are still learning guess where you will be? Right out in the rain with them. I just set up a patio umbrella right outside my door and always took a flashlight with me at night so I knew exactly where they were and if they went potty or poo. If they didn't go, they went right into the cage. Than out a few minuites later, even if I had to do it 2*3 times. Whatever it took to get them to go potty outdoors and not in my home.

He Peed Where ?
I know ! It is like OMG Hello ! I am right here ! When Rubin lifted a leg and marked the stack of clean towels; I just forgot everything I teach, I stomped my foot and screeched at him, " RUBBBBBBBBBIN !! What the Heck is wrong with You ?!! Have you lost your mind ?!! He cringed and ran to his crate. The other dogs stopped playing. For a micro second they were in a primitive terror freeze. Just like ancient dogs of long ago used to freeze, when a saber tooth tiger roared at them. They blinked off the fearfull trance and ran to me, licking and jumping in a frenzy of doggy comfort. They were doing a canine version of "it's going to be ok, there, there, just calm down" . I felt so embarrassed, even if the Yorkies were the only witnesses, to see my moment of crazy. Rubin never marked clean towels again. Maybe he was traumatized. I just don't know. But, I do not advise you stomp a foot like it is on fire or scream like a bee stung banshie. My throat was sore for two days, not to mention my shattered illusion of self control. That was several years ago and this is the first time I have been brave enough to tell the whole, truth ... I hope you still respect me in the morning. :D

that is funny morgan has not done that ye t
