my two-year-old yorkie is still peeing all over my furniture!?

Question

i know smaller dogs are harder to house break than the larger breeds, but yorkies are rediculous! any tips for helping my peeing puppy?

Answer 1

nope

Answer 2

I have dogs all my life and now have 2 yorkie. I agree, yorkie is hard to train for some reason. I never have problem with my other dogs but my 3 year old yorkie is still peeing and pooping everywhere. Everything in here that people mention, I tried it thousand times and nothing works for her.
The only thing I can do now is take her out after I came home from work, after she eats and before she goes to sleep. Then first thing when I wake up before she wakes up and jump off my bed. I have to make sure she goes before she get inside the living room and bedroom to play. If she doesn't go she's not allow to play in the carpet area. So she's not house broken, but at least I can eliminate her peeing at home by taking her out more often.

Answer 3

I had a Yorkie for 12 years and she never quit peeing in the house! I didn't crate train (I thought it was cruel) but I wish now that I had. I would recommend crate training. Since your Yorkie is 2 years old, it may take a little longer than it would for a puppy, but be persistant. Good luck!

Answer 4

First, smaller dogs are not harder to house break. The breed may be a little slower at "gettin it", but it's two years old? I think you should take it to the vet. It may be a bladder infection, obvious loss of continance at two years old and was previously house trained, could be kidney issue as well.

Answer 5

I had a yorkie for five years and he never stopped peeing on the floor! This was most likely because not only was he not neutered but we also had an un-neutered male miniature pincher, and a female. They were always competing! Yea pretty dumb set up but we never had the heart to get them neutered. That decision kicked my *** when he ran away, probably looking for girls at five years old and I never saw him again! I miss him soooooo much :(

Answer 6

If he is male, he is marking his territory.

A trick that works. Save some of your own pee in a cub. And when the dog does it again next time, empty the cup in it's face. By the 3rd time around the dog will have learned the consequences. Trust me even works on rabbits.

Answer 7

there are a lot of people that say small dogs are harder to house train but l know alot of people that have small dog and they were just as easy to train. you must keep after it. and you can buy pads but that isn't really house training it. the more you stick with it the faster it will be house broke' if you are going to do something try your best to do it right. let her know she did wrong and take it out side. do it more often and give her a reward when she does it out side. good luck

Answer 8

If he/she isn't neutered/spayed then that would be my first priority. Second, what are you cleaning your couch with? Just because you can't smell the urine doesn't mean your dog can't smell it. Dogs' sense of smell is over 3,000 times better than ours. When you clean it, make sure you're using an enzymatic cleaner. It means it won't just hide the smell, it's specially formulated to break down the urine. Lastly, make sure there's nothing wrong with him. If he has an infection or if he's got something like bladder stones, that would cause him to urinate inappripriately. Bring him to the vet just in case. Good luck, I hope this helps.

Answer 9

Little canines are no longer bred for temperament, ordinarily for the $$$ they generate. between the topics with this is marking this is what your dogs is doing. the simplest way of doing it somewhat is to bypass out and purchase a abdomen band. those conceal up his little section, and so while he is going to mark, it only is going right into somewhat diaper. as some distance with the aid of fact the water obsession, i could seek for suggestion from a vet first to work out if he has a medical issue. don't experience undesirable approximately leaving him in a crate, it somewhat is the life which you chosen for him through no longer preparation him previously. He has shown you that he's the dominant member of the domicile and you went alongside with it. i'm no longer scolding you, I handle this lots, as I prepare canines. He has a greater suitable character than you think of, and unfortunatly with canines of this nature, human beings will in basic terms bypass so some distance to handle this. i could get the band and forget relating to the full element. in case you like preparation suggestion for this, nicely, only ask and that i'll respond to that. : )

Answer 10

After 2 years, I bet that pee is starting to really stink..
I had one and he was quite good about not going in the house, unless I wasn't paying attention to him and he was trying to tell me he needed out, like being by the back door..

Answer 11

i would not recommend rubbing your dogs face into the pee. (i use to do this and it does not help any). I found that crate training is the best way for me to house break a dog, but have big dogs. I got a puppy last year and had her house broke in 2 weeks with crate trainin. after we played i took her out so that she did not have a chance to pee in the floor when she went out i waited for her to start to go and i as she was going i told her to hurry. now she know that when i take her out and say hurry she has to pee. of a night she slept in a crate that was just big enough for her to stand up turn around and lay down. i would take her out a couple of times at first then as the days went on i took her out less and less. If she did go in the house i would take her out asap wait for her to go then bring her back (or i had someone else take her out) when we came back in i removed her from the room that she went in and cleaned it up. i read somewhere that when you clean it up make sure they are not in the room watching you. If i was not playing with her or to where i could watch her she was in her crate. my schedule went like this wake up, took her out to pee, eat, take her out, play, take her out and i would take her out before i went to bed. my cousin as a yorkie and it is the weirdest thing but she uses a litter box. but i think rubbing a dogs face in their pee only helps to get your anger out it does not help the dog to understand what you want from it. i hope this helped.
