fancy can be hard at time on things. but she wasn't that bad. at time we think she going backwards on us on few things. I didn't think that boys was any hader just that one lady had to tell my aunt that. but at time I think people don't want her to have one.

I have 2 boys & they were easier to train than the girls. I use a water bottle wrapped in pee pad as a marker for the boys. Didn't even have to teach them to go there, they just naturally used it. 'ohhh dat's my spot'

I had an issue w/the girls going on the edge & the bottom of the pee pad would get wet along w/the bathroom floor. That drove me bonkers loll! What fixed the problem was simply making the pee area larger. Oh & after using washable pee pads, we hardly had any accidents...but did have to remove all rugs, they can't tell the difference!

yeah fancy will use rugs too every now and then too

Oh that's really clever! I'm gonna have to start doing something similar to that. Not completely sure I could use a water bottle though cause our girl loves water bottles. Maybe I could get a wooden block or something.

eek hahaha! I can just imagine: Didn't your brudder go pee on that bottle?!
How about a pickle jar or something similar filled w/water?

Hahah I don't think she would even care. She'd still gnaw on it lol And I like the pickle jar idea. That is definitely a lot easier.

kikil · 11-27-2012, 11:29 AM

I never thought of the pickle jar befere. I have tryed the water on here for the bitting but that didn't stop here. she did stop for a while but now she started to go back to doing the bitting of my feet for some reason.

My boy was WAY easier to train than my girl. My girl also became a poop eater which my boy never did. I got my boy neutered early and he never 'marked'. BTW, intresting tidbit- girls can be markers too, I saw one the other day that even lifted her leg! I think its all about the individual and how much time you put into training.

Teresa Ford · 11-27-2012, 04:17 PM

YES and NO. I mean shucks, it depends on the Yorkie. My little Abba is going on 2 and he does not go in the house (even on pee-pads). He was the easiest Yorkie I ever house trained. Rubin is going on ten years old and will still pee on anything new that is on the floor. He also pees on my quilt if I leave the gate to my bedroom unlatched.
So hence my answer, Yes and No.

kikil · 11-27-2012, 09:34 PM

at time I think she was harder to train. but she starting to listen a lot more but she does have her days. and she a 1 year and 3months

pinkpatty · 11-28-2012, 05:27 AM

Depends on the dog, Keno was completely house trained by 5 months, I have never had any other dog house trained that fast. Have had many breeds of dogs and equal female to male in numbers. Keno was the easiest.
