When I put down the potty pads they both did one of each on it. But one of them likes my carpet in the kitchen. Well the question is to any pom owners. We attempted to take them out on a leash, but I don't think they were ever leash trained; they belonged to an elderly lady. They seem to know basic commands, but I'm worried about the housetraining. If anyone can give me some advise it would be great. I have them barricaded right now in my utility room with potty pads. I don't want to keep doing that. Please help anyone. Thanks.

I think that they were not housebroken very well. That means they know what they are suppose to do but get lazy and probably have always gotten away with that. Keeping them confined is best. With two of them you might not always know which one did the deed. Start out by useing the words lets go potty outside or any words that you want to use. Just make sure you always say the same thing when it is time to go potty. Take small treats. When one goes say good potty and give treat. When the other one goes say the same thing and give treat. If they don't go they don't get a treat. Always say good Potty when they go. I can't stress that enough. It won't take long and they will get the hang of it. Just stay on top of it and start at two hour intervals to take them out for a couple of days and then 3/12 hrs for a couple of days and so on. In a few weeks you will see that they understand the potty and treat idea and you can drop the treats at that point. Good Luck it just takes consistancy and patience.
I have a small male pom weighing nearly 4 lbs. He is having trouble in the potty training area.
I have two male Pomeranians (both are a little over a year old). They just won't be potty trained. One comes in the house after relieving himself and just goes and poops on the floor. The other for no reason at all just pees on stuff. My husband is ready to get rid of them both. Please help me I don't wanna get rid of them; I love them. Thank you.
