Does your yorkie tear up their puppy pads I know Chloe is just a puppy and all puppies do this. But how do you get them to stop? Chloe is confined to the laundry room when nobody can be at home. Usually my mom is home. But nobody can be home 24 hours a day. Mom still has to run errands. Everytime we come home, it is the same thing. Chloe tears up her puppy pads and poop is scattered from one end of the laundry room to the other. |
YES, lol Lacie loves to tear her's up!! :) |
Cali once in awhile will drag hers around. I did buy a holder for the one in the front of the house and she leaves that alone. |
My yorky and scottie love to play tug awar with pee pads carrying it between the two of them down the hall as fast as they can go with it.Cathy and Yoshi :p |
LOL Princess did when she was a puppy. Now she gets the Newspaper!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: |
My mom and I left for an hour today to go out to eat dinner. And once again the pee pee pad was scattered all the way to the other end of the laundry room. And poop was everywhere! I am thinking of getting duck tape to tape it to the floor, but it would be a hassle to take the tape off everytime we have to change her pad. I caught her in the act several times and it does no good to fuss her. Because 5 seconds later, I catch her doing it again. It is a pain, but sometimes funny. I can't help but to laugh about it afterwards. |
My Syndey does the same thing. She's tearing up everything. I tried puppy pads and newspaper. When I come home from work it always the same torn newspaper everywhere. |
LoL Yes! Fiona did the same thing. We even tried taping it and she still managed to tear them up. We just took them away and she stays in her crate to sleep and whenever we aren't home. |
Dogwiz 1 Attachment(s) I bought a dogwiz for my Yorkie, it's great! What it is, is a very shallow dish with a grate. You put a wee wee pad or newspaper on the platform and then place the grate over it. Then they can't reach the paper and another nice thing is that they aren't walking all over in their pee ether. I wasn't sure if Zoe would use it but, I didn't have any problems, she took to it right away! What I did was put the dogwiz on one side of her baby playpen and her food, water, toys, and blankets on the other. I gave her loads of prase when she would do a "good potty" and then I would let her out to play. It made it nice because it wouldn't let the wee wee pad fold or shift in her playpen. Eventually, I moved the playpen out of the way and placed the dogwiz in it's spot (next to my back door) and she continued to use it. I put it next to the door during the winter because most of the time it was too cold for her to go outside but, close to where she needed to go when it was warm enough. I have a link to the dogwiz web page below! :animal-pa http://twinkle.home.bresnan.net/id31.htm |
From personal experience I no longer buy the Puppy Pee pads. My yorkie would tear them up really bad. Well I just found out that puppy wee pads have very tiny traces of urine on all the pads and it was possible that they smell this and instead of wanting to use the pad ,they want to tear it up .I use the pads that go on hospital beds sold at Walmart 18pk they are much bigger also for only $5.27. They do not tear it up anymore. Lola tore it up like the first two nights that she was here , I guess not enough chew toys around here. I tried taping it. I used the big clear tape. I swear you could not even notice it on the floor. Well they noticed it and they went NUTS scratching the floor until they took the tape off! Now they dont bother the pee pad anymore! I have a basket filled with toys that she can get into and I keep another toybox that they can get into in my bedroom. So she chews on her toys now :) Genie,Cookie & Lola |
a puppy thing..... yes.... it is a puppy stage thing.... and they usually grow out of it but they sell puppy holders and you can try that. I use them but sometimes the little bugger still manages to pull the pad out. I just look at the brat funny and deliberately play with the other brats is front of her! |
i tape mine down but now my pup has decided not to pee on them. was doing great then just stopped |

Cookie2 I can so relate to everything you are saying. I have just started taking Abbie outside to peepee. She goes everytime i take her. I started with the clear tape then the masking tape. It worked better for some reason. She quit tearing it up but then just decided she didn't want to go there anymore. I think maybe because after about 3 pee's on it she wanted a clean one. She would go after i put down a clean pad. They are to expensive to throw away after 3 pee's. lol I just keep her in the kitchen during the day and take her out often. She is a smart little girl so she will potty train easy. |
I have 2 litters of puppies so you can imagine the fun they have with killing the wee pads . |
