| I don't know what to do.... As most of you know I got another furbaby in June. I've been having a terrible time getting her potty broke, my other furbaby was a breeze compared to her. My 7 month old is now crawling all around the house and hubby is worried he always crawling in her accidents. If I can't get her to stop I'm afraid he is going to make me get rid of her, (we are also in the process of buying a house and he wont want the new carpet to smell like pee). What should I do?? I just don't see her interest in going. I love her to pieces! I've been crying all day for the fear of losing her. I grew attached to her very quickly. She is the best little dog, other than the potty bit. Should I discuss with my breeder, who is also a good friend of mine, the situation and let her go back and live with her where I know she will have a good home? I'm just tired of hearing how she is smelling the place up and how he is afraid for my son and for Tilly sniffing her messes and wanting to potty there. I HATE this!!! I'm such a baby. Please someone help me on what to do.

| No, you're not a baby. You care about your puppy very much. Yorkies are very hard to potty train. Elie still has accidents and she is six (not months, years). Have you tried crate training or having her wear a diaper and taking her out atleast every 3 hours?

JJ is 4 years old. At her breeders she had a doggie door, so she could go in and out as she wanted to. I never find her searching for a door or anything. I haven't tried crate training or diapers, we do have a diaper we use for Tilly when she is in heat. I take her out about every 3-4 hrs.

| My boys are almost 2 years and still not housebroken! ggrrrr when I leave the door open they will go outside but if the door is shut they go in the house wherever they feel like it. gggrrrr try taking your baby out every 2 hours.. and maybe try hanging a bell from the door and ringing it when you let her out to pee... that way she might learn to ring the bell when she has to pee so you know and can take her out.

The bell is a great idea! I'll have to try it out!
