I just goy a dog for my birthday in August and it is the cutest thing ever its a toy Yorkie and i loved it for like 2 weeks and know it just drives my crazy, I used to let it sleep in my room in like a cute like box thing but it would wake me up at 5:00 in the morning so know it just sleeps outside with my other dog. And very time I open the backyard door it runs inside the house and when you go to pick it up it pee's. It also digs holes, doesn't go to the bathroom in the grass and it barks all night its just crazy. I was thinking about taking it to a dog training class at pets-mart but I don't really know if it works. Please give me advise on how to fix this problem as fast as I can and without to much work involved.
thanks

Guard Dog Training Tips & Tricks Revealed
Recommended Answer:
Never let your dog sleep on your bed unless you want him to be spoiled and don't really care.
It is best to leave you dog to sleep in it's own bed locked somewhere in the house such as the laundry room, and if he/she starts barking, don't go see what's wrong because he/she just wants attention and going to see whats wrong with her/him would let him/her think that he/she is the boss and would take advantage on you.
Always let your dog out at about every two hours or one hour. And if you want your dog to be potty trained inside the house, you could by these dog nappy pads that you spread out on the floor, and then whenever it is just about to pee or poo, quickly take your dog to the nappy pad, and keep taking it to the pad until it will go to do its potty on the pad by itself.
If it digs holes in the garden whenever you let it out, make sure your garden is fenced and that the fence is stuck into the ground, so when it digs a massive hole it wont be able to get out.
If it barks whenever you let it out, i know this sounds cruel, but you can always get a shock collar for little dogs so it wouldn't hurt them a lot, but they usually teach them a lesson to not bark for no reason whenever it is let out. Or you could say "no!" but in a very strong, tough voice so it knows that you are serious. If that doesn't work, you can always spank it, but not too hard, just gently, and it is best to do it just above their nose, because dogs don't really like to be tapped or spanked above their nose. Yorkshires are also very well known to yap a lot. LoL That is probably why your one is noisy, my neighbour has a yorkie and sometimes it would be barking for the whole day.
Another option is you can take it to doggy school.
Make sure you don't spoil your dog too much even if it is very tempting to because it will just take advantage on you and would think that they are the alpha and you are the lower member of the pack.
Well anyways, have fun with it and good luck on training your dog. And i beat it is extremely cute because i love yorkies myself, we were going to get one but my dad didn't want a yorkie because he said they would be very noisy and are too small.
The 5 Best Dog Training Tips For You and Your Dog
- ok first thing You have a huge problem if you want to have a dog and not have "too much work involved" . In that case just find the dog another home because you might not be suitable to be a pet parent. The dog wants attention and his bored and that's why it finds ways to entertain itself. Try a class or read articles on training.
- Hi,
You might want to teach your dog the basic obedience commands. They reinforce your role as your dog's leader. Using treats to lure your dog into the correct position or place, and then to reward her for obeying, is one of the easiest and most dog-friendly methods. here's more info:

- Sign up for Puppy Kindergarten, You need to learn to communicate with the puppy and he needs to learn to respect you.
- One of my all time favorite quotes is: "If you don't have time to train a dog, get a stuffed animal!"
- Take him to see a trained pet psychologist.
- All dogs like to be kept inside because they are social animals, but keeping a toy Yorkie outside just spells a recipe for disaster. They aren't outside dogs, have long hair, and are very fragile. It sounds like your dog needs a lot of interaction and exercise, and you should be consulting with a veterinarian on how to train your dog so that you are both happy--because right now he's not happy and neither are you.
If all else fails, consider giving the puppy to someone who is more prepared to handle him--there are lots of breed-rescues that might be willing to rehome him. Keeping him outside is not right.
