Don't put his nose in it and spank him because he will not understand why you are doing that and will just become fearful of you and hide. You gave him too much room too soon. Small dogs are harder to housetrain and you have to be more vigilant. Try tethering like another poster suggested or just limit the room until he is older

I decided to move him in the living room, put all his toys on the couch and let him sleep in my bed. I put a doggiepad in the livingroom and bedroom. He just pees on them. He poops either by the bedroom door or the hallway. This morning he peed in the kitchen. I was told to put his nose in it and spank him then put him on the pad. I really don't like doing this and I don't think it's working. What's the problem? ------------------------------------ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today! " Yahoo!
