Help I have been having my yorkie for a month now and she is 3 months old. Well the problem is that in the middle of the night around 3 or 4 she'll start whining and i take her out n bring her to potty but she doesnt all she wants to do is play some of the time she has already used it in her kennel! After i bring her back in and put her back in her kennel she crys and cryss !! ANY ideas are much needed!!! :confused: |

welcome to yorkietalk |
That's the puppy Stage - Chanel used to wake me up at 2 am every morning -that was Pee 'n Play time - I loved it. :D :D :D She'll probably grow out of it....I have no advise but to enjoy it and one day she'll sleep thru the night |
Welcome! What worked for me is CAli would wake up at 1 or 2 am and I would take her out of her playpen and put her in her small crate on the pillow next to me and she would go right back to sleep. |
Should i not be taking her out to potty at night ? |
Welcome to YT! and congrats on the new baby. Trust me it's perfectly normal for them to cry just don't give in to the crying, otherwise it will not stop. Your pup will think she will get what she wants by crying. As hard as it is, try to ignore the crying, she will learn. |
thanks yes it is soo hard to hear her crying makes me feel bad but i know i have to just ignore it ! |
I would DEF take her out - yorkies have tiny bladders - she'll learn to hold it but for now ...let her out when she needs to go. She's just at the baby stage and for some reason the middle of the night gives them energy - lol - Quote:

if she truely does have to go in the middle of the night then yes take her out. however sometimes puppies learn that you will get up for them in the middle of th enight and take them out to play if they whine. SO they might start whining to be taken out just to play instead of having to potty. if you notice that everytime you take her out in the middle of the night that she just wants to play and not potty then you can stop taking her outside in the middle of the night. she just wants attention |
But when i bring her out she doesnt potty she waits till i put her back in the kennel ! |

okay thanks for all the suggestions ! |
You might try putting a sweaty t-shirt that you've worn in with her. It makes her feel like you're near her. If you're crate training I would only do it for a few days or a couple of weeks. Also, like kalina82 said, don't play with her in the middle of the night. Let her out to do her business and put her back in. You may have to do this a couple of times. After a while she should figure it out. She's still pretty young. |
Ahhhhh...:D This brings back memories. I used to beat them and set my alarm earlier than they should need to go and take them out. It was hard, but I knew it wouldn't last forever. And it doesn't.:D |
