Peeing on Pads-pooping on floor - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I picked up my Yorkie-Tyson last Friday. For the most part he is doing reaaly well. He pees on the pads. I actually put the pad in a ltter box & he is really good about peeing on them. The problem is he will not poop on them. Any suggestions?

are you sure his name isnt Harley!!!!! hehe me dog has been doing that for 6 months. wont pee and poop on the pads together. Even outside he pees good , then comes in and poops on the pad. Then he wants a treat for it. I give it because if I dont he will go on the carpet. good luck. Just be consistent because they are smart, just stubborn about the poody thing.

I just get so crazy about it-because if you know to pee on them-then you can poop on them too. I know I really donot have much to complain abut-considering he has been with me a week & is peeing on them. He gets so excited -when I say good boy

Poop just seems to take a little more time to learn where it goes for some reason, lol.

I know this is gross,

but take a little piece of poo and put it on the pee pad, and when he goes to smell it (which they ALWAYS do, little stinkers) say GOOD DOG, poop on pad! all excited, or something to that effect.

Patience is a virtue, and I know me, I am not always that virtuous, lol!!

I will try that with Tyson today. He is such a little stinker. Thanks

Mac and Mellie still will not poop on the pee pads. I guess becuase it's a pee pad! They will poop next to it on the floor. Go figure. I give up. At least they are going in the bathroom and not on my carpet!
