How Do You Potty Train A Yorkie Terrier?
Yorkie terriers are one of the smallest dog breeds. While its size may make starting potty training easier, the Yorkie terrier is not one of the fastest learners among the toy breeds. Training could take many months, with occasional accidents still a possibility. Continual training may be needed for some Yorkies. Keep the Yorkie terrier confined while he is learning to become potty trained. The tiny size of the Yorkie (as small as two pounds as an adult) means that you may not spot his messes. If you miss them, their smell will encourage him to make more deposits. Use pet gates or closed doors to keep him in a part of your home that you can readily monitor. Use a pet crate for overnight potty training. The crate’s small size will discourage the dog from relieving himself, since dogs are naturally averse to soiling their own bedding. Because Yorkie terriers are so tiny, you may need to buy an insert to make the crate even smaller; otherwise, the Yorkie might relieve himself in one part
