Cage Training The Yorkie
If you have ever owned a Yorkie, you know they can be difficult to potty-train. However, crate training can make the process way easier for plenty of reasons. In this post, I can discuss crate training your Yorkie.
Yorkies are intelligent dogs. Actually research has proven that they can learn commands faster than a substantial number of other breeds. But, they can still be stubborn when it comes to potty-training. Employing a crate will keep them confined so they can stay out of trouble.
Dog crates come in several different sizes, but you want to be sure you find one that is the proper size for your Yorkie. You do not need one that is so small that they can’t move in, and you do not need one that is too massive, or your Yorkie will urine in it. You need to find one that’s sufficient room for them to walk around in.
You will want to put a comfortable blanket or doggie bed in their crate to keep them comfortable. Don’t put too much in there at first in the event your Yorkie has an accident in it.
Your Yorkie should stay in their crate in the night and when nobody is at home. This keeps them from roaming the house readily and hinders them from having accidents in the house. Just do not forget to take them outside to go potty first thing in the morning or when you get home.
If your Yorkie has an accident inside the house, don’t punish them by making them go their crate. You do not want them to think that their crate is a form of punishment. It should be a safe, snug area for your Yorkie. Most small dogs will basically like being in their crates because they feel safe and comfortable in it.
Crate training works miracles if done right and even after your Yorkie is trained, they could still like to sleep in it.
