Talking Re: Potty Training

I have found that taking them outside often and giving positive feedback(praise, treats) works the best. I think sometimes it is the breed though that makes some dogs hard to potty train. My parents have had several Yorkshire Terriers. They wanted nothing to do with going outside if the weather was bad. If you let them out on a cold, rainy,snowy or windy day they would not leave the porch until you let them back in. They would run right past you and crap on the rug. This happened regardless of how old they were.
I like to call them "sooners". Sooner **** on the rug than go outside.
