| Hello from Dolce and Sirita Good Morning All, I am Sirita...1st time Yorkie owner and I would like to introduce not only myself, but my baby Dolce. He is 2 months old...born January 15, 2005...he is a little fiesty thing. I picked him up yesterday and he has become accustomed to the apt. so fast. He is too cute. Last night he refused to sleep in his crate...he slept w. me the entire night. Of course I didnt get much sleep for fear that I would crush him... He does wonderfully with his bladder. He ONLY goes on the wee wee pads and knew exactly what it was when I put him on it. He has so far been wonderful, except for the crate. Right now he is asleep on my bed as I type...go figure. LOL I want him to get used to his crate...at least while I am gone to work. Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance I am sooo happy to have found this board... |

| Hi and welcome! Try doing a search for crate training, there have been tons of posts about this. I'm a huge advocate of crate training. If you can't find help in doing the search, then post again and I'll try to help.

| Welcome Sirita & Dolce to YT. Congratulations on becoming a first time Yorkie owner - Dolce is a cutie! 15 1/2 years ago, our new Yorkie puppy wouldn't sleep in her bed either so we put her in bed with us where she slept every night from then on! (which was great with us - she always slept at our feet & on top of the comforter!) But if you don't want to always have Dolce in your bed, you will have to bite the bullet & listen to some nights of crying! |

| Hi Sirita and Dolce!! Bo and I welcome you to YorkieTalk! I agree with the earlier posts. Do a search on crate training and sleeping. There's been tons of advice. I'll just add though that you'll just have to leave him in there and not give in. He really will get used to it. I forced myself to lay Bo down when he fell asleep in my arms when he was tiny. That way he became accustomed to being in the crate when he was tired. Good luck!
