Help.

I have a yorkie puppy. He used to be really good pee-ing on training pads, but about a monthly ago, he started to pee at a corner of my living room...
ever since he pees at the same spot in the living room everyday.

I have used the pet odor remover and dettol to clean it up and remove the smell, but he still pee there once everyday. The funny thing is he still pees at the training pad mostly.
should i use sth to cover up that spot so he can't smell it?

did he p a lot or just a little bit, did he p when you were at home or he was alone.

if you don't want him to p at that corner again, you can just simply put some "white pepper", the chinese one, at that corner. and he won't p and at corner again

if you want to find out the reason, you need to spend more time.
eg. if he p a little bit when he was alone, he may feel uncomfortable when he was alone.  you should not play with him just before you leave.  and you can slowly train him,  maybe start from one hour.

my dog will do the same thing when he  is mad.

White pepper powder, you can find in any supermarket, spice section.

Dog is territorial. From my experience, it pees to claim its real estate. You have to be dominant and claim the territory back from it. After it pee, you have to bring it back to the spot and tell (not yell, straight face and hand signal, not beat)  it not to do it again. The best way  is to catch it during the act. Use your hand to simulate a dog bite to its butt.  be consistent.
It worked for me, may not be yours though . Good luck.

my dog p on the carpet a lot, so my uncle told us to use 胡椒粉, the one that you add on 粥.  since we put 胡椒粉 on the carpet, he won't p overthere again.  but remember to reapply a significant amount of  胡椒粉 everytime after you clear the carpet.
i believe he doesn't like the smell, he got close to there and smelled it few times, then he would go away

Is your dog just turned adult?
Usually male dogs will start marking their territory when they become adult.
