| Jazzybaby, sounds like you're getting a good plan together! I believe all our training "methods" are "what works best for us and our baby". I have gotten valuable information from listening to the experts as well as other yorkie owners ... when you put all that good information together and adjust it a little here and there you can just make it work beatifully!! We never, ever allow Toto to be where she doesn't have access to her wee wee pad! Whether it's in her crate, X-pen, in the cars or visiting Granny! If she needs to go pee, I intend for her to have a place to go! At night she sleeps with us and has a way off the bed without waking us in case she needs to go at night. We always said, "no way is she sleeping with us"! Well .... if she falls asleep watching TV on our bed, who could disturb that sweet angel!?

| I think what they ment is if your crate training, the crate should be just big enough for her to stand and turn around in, not to let her potty in the crate cause they get in a habit going in there. these ladies has a pen. they are very nice and gives lots of room. i've had very good luck with the peepads even with my young pups 6-7-8- weeks good luck what ever you do. we also have a doggy door and they go out also when weather permits.

| The biggest thing I read, especially since they are too young to hold it, is just to give them a slightly larger den area, and place the potta as far away from food and bed as you possibly can to associate the two areas separately. =) |
