Indoor Litter Training It is an easy, clean method to help us in the raising of our Yorkie furkins . . . And there are so many advantages to litter training. Our new yorkie families love it too! Apartment dwellers with no yard can use a litterbox — no need to walk a dog when staying in a hotel, or bad weather prevents you and your dog from being outside for too long. Please note, Litter training does not mean your dog will never be able to potty outside. It is to help assist young puppies / dogs while being house trained. Puppies that are litter boxed trained can successfully use a litter box in addition to going outside. Depending on the age of the puppy when they leave our home, many will already be familiar with using the litter box and the outdoors. Each pen will have a whelping area for the mother and her pups. Pens are large enough so as to allow puppies to move about freely. The litter area is close by and kept clean at all times. This system is using wee-wee pads underneath of specially designed grass mats with holes to allow the pee-pee to go through to the pad. These grass mats are stain resistant, odor resistant, water resistant, fade resistant and bacterial resistant. They are easily cleaned by running them under hot water. Just one grass mat can be used, however we recommend having at least two for convenience (perhaps placing one on two different floor levels) or an extra to take along on a trip. We can provide you with these mats or guide you to an on-line source. Right from the very beginning, there's a game called "Follow-the-Leader". As the adults use our "Litter Training System" the pups automatically follow. We raise our pups in larger pens, with the litter system enclosed thereby allowing easy convenient access whenever "Mother Nature" calls. Our system is easy to continue and makes the transition into a new home environment less stressful. Your yorkie pup being familiar with this system is less likely to have accidents. Yorkies love to please their owners so remember a little patience and praise goes a long way in helping your yorkie be successful. Some people prefer using the Litter System exclusively since yorkies do not need to go outside for daily exercise. This makes it extremely convenient for disabled people who would love to have a dog and not worry how they will handle potty issues. An additional benefit for your little puppy is less chance of developing UTIs (uninary tract infections) brought on by having to wait long hours before relieving themselves. This system allows them to go when needed If you are interested in continuing the "Litter System" we use, please let me know at time of your initial deposit and I will be more than happy to give you more thorough steps on training and using this system.
