Potty training Yorkies can be a hassle and frustrating. Especially when they potty on your carpet all the time. So, what I’m going to do is share with you some tips on how to potty train Yorkies. That way, your dog will know how and where to go potty.

The tips on how to potty train Yorkies are:

1. Reward Good Behavior. The first way to potty train your dog is to reward them for their behavior. If you are trying to get your dog to potty outside in the grass, whenever you take them outside to potty and they do it, be sure to reward them.

Even if your Yorkie potties outside while you’re playing with them. This will let your dog know that the grass is where they should potty.

2. Discipline Bad Behavior. Whenever your dog potties in the house, you should discipline them. Put there nose up to the place where they went potty, whether is urine or poop, and gently spank them. This will let them know that this behavior isn’t acceptable.

3. Have A Schedule. You should take your dog outside first thing in the morning, at mid-day, and again at night. Of course, your dog will have to go more than that. But this is a good way for them to get on a schedule.

It will also encourage them to go potty. Once they figure out that’s why you’re taking them outside, they will make it a regular routine.

4. Praise Your Dog. You don’t have to give your dog a treat every time they have went potty outside. Instead, you can praise them. This will help reinforce the positive behavior. Also, Yorkies love to be praised.
