[QUOTE="mom_to_3, post: 215520, member: 30"] I have a Yorkie too! He is the sweetest, well mannered (except when someone rings the door bell), potty trained little guy I've known. I crate trained him from the beginning and we had NO accidents ever. We didn't allow for accidents. By that I mean that when he was a teeny, tiny guy, he was in his crate at all times, we had water accessible at all times and fed him at different times thru the day. He was only out of the crate at designated times to potty. We didn't let him walk outside, I carried him to the spot in the yard, that I wanted him to forever potty at. After he did his business, he got loads of praise and then we ran and played in the yard. He was able to come into the house and walk on the carpet only in the same area we were and sit in our laps. He only got about a 10 min. time span of that. Then he would go right back to his crate where he would promptly go to sleep. In about 45 min. we would repeat the process. This worked only because I was at home and able to do it, and most importantly..... I was dedicated. My "Buster" loves his crate, I made it soft and warm. We are able to leave the door open and he "puts himself away". :) When he was young, I was able to say........ get in your bed and he made a run for it. It's very doable and your dog will love you for it! Good luck! [/QUOTE]
