Hubbies at his wits end. Hes just spent ages in the garden with Norman and he came in and promptly peed all over the kitchen floor. Any idea ladies/gents

Well I told Callie no in a stern voice when she would go potty on the floor also make sure when he goes in the right place you are praising him and giving him a treat. If he is pooing in the house take his poo and put it outside where you want him to go. Never ever rub his nose in his pee. It can take a long time and lots of consistency and patients.

We have different treats for pee and poop time. And he gets praised up everytime he goes outside. In fact he knows hes done good as he come running over tail wagging. I try not to shout at him for being naughty and messing indoors. And there are certainly no treats. But if we catch him starting to go we give a short sharp NO. But he carries on regardless. Hes a very stubborn little thing. And as I say hubby is getting really annoyed. Something I really didnt want, as it took me years to get round him to let me have a Yorkie. In my eyes.. stressing out over it doesnt solve the problem.

I am sorry your husband is getting annoyed but it really does take time and patients. Yorkies are known to be stubborn I know mine sure is

. In time your little guy will get it as long as you keep up with it. If you can't watch him all the time you may want to get a play pen for him so he is not peeing all over the house.

He knows it takes time and alot of patience. Hes just a moody so n so. Yorkies wont do what you want them to do if they arnt in the mood. Thats one of the reasons I wanted one, they are much like myself.lol I think hes doing extremly well. Weve not even had him a month yet.
