| Puppy Training My Oliver is 6 months old today, we have had him for 3 months. I'm having difficulty getting him "house-trained". Have tried the pee-pad (he just chews them up); he is well rewarded when he does his business outside with pats and treats; the past 2 weeks I am now putting him in his crate when he messes in the house. I thought we were making headway this week, but now this morning - he has spent a good deal of his time in his crate. This is our 2nd Yorkie - we had Oscar for 11 years. He was 9 months old when we got him, and I don't recall having this much trouble. Any suggestions? Barb Last edited by Barb F; 09-02-2011 at 08:07 AM. Reason: I wish to remove this posting.

| I got two Yorkie pups at the same time. It took well over a year to get them completely housetrained. I never used a crate. I would say just patience, patience, and not letting them have the run of the house. Keep them in the kitchen for instance, and only there until they earn their right to go elsewhere. |
