I have a almost 3 month old pom/Chi/Yorkie. I have found with all my dogs that they are really treat driven. I had forgotten what really did the trick with my 2 year old Chihuahua to get him to go out and do his business every time. It was treats. I take her (the chorkie/pom) out and tell her to go potty and she immediately goes and I give her a treat and now she is going out by herself (most of the time). Do you have other dogs? I find that by having other dogs she is more easily persuaded to go out without me. Your dog might just like being with you where mine is very adventurous and will explore my yard for a long time by herself before she comes in. Getting Pom-a-Poo to go outside alone | Behavior
