Potty training a Pekingese

Takes patience training difficulty — general orientation

Pekingese are independent and can be stubborn, and a tiny bladder plus a dislike of bad weather make housetraining slow. Frequent short trips, a sheltered spot, and patient rewards work best; indoor pads are a common backup.

When to expect reliability: Typically 6–12 months. Individual dogs vary — consult your veterinarian.

The Pekingese is a flat-faced (brachycephalic) breed and often dislikes cold or wet weather, which can slow outdoor training. See our guide to caring for flat-faced dogs.
