YorkieTalk Newbie! | Marking his territory Hi! I have a 7month male Yorkie, his name is Buddy. I keep Buddy confined to the kitchen because I'm afraid if I bring him in any other room he will mark his territory. I brought him down the basement when he was 6 months old and that was the first thing he did. I told him firmly NO! PeePee outside, and took him outside, but as soon as he was given the chance he did it again. Eversince then I don't know if he can be trusted. I have a male cat that roams and I'm afraid that's why he's marking. Any suggestions? |

| Are you going to get him neutered that would probably help. Or are you planning to breed him?

YorkieTalk Newbie! | marking territory Yes! We plan on getting him neutered. I was told to wait til he's 8months old. I hope that works, cuz right now I feel so bad keeping him in the kitchen all the time and if we do let him out for a bit, he runs around like crazy and we're constantly saying, " no peepee". |
