im haveing truble house training my puppy she never asks to go out but sometimes she ill bolt right out the door when sombody is walking in or out and then pee or poop we canot punish her becouse she went potty outside what should we do? if she canot git out she pees/poops on the floor than asks to go out!

im also wondering about obedince tricks i have been working on her with obedince scince an hower after i got her home so far she has masterd sit, lay, finish, and heel i think thats it

but we are working on stand, the sit on halt, when we run she jumps, when we go slow she will sit until i git far enuf away i am allmost tugging her caller, stay, on finish she gose in a full sercle insted of a half i think thats it but im not shure can some body tell me how to fix thees problums?

but just 4 fun i tought her a cupple other tricks hug is when she jumps up on me and givs me a big bair hug pritty is when she jumps up on her back feet and puts her frunt on my fist (becouse dogs dont have hips made 4 standing on there own) sit pritty is when she sits strate up with her frunt hands on my fist. she is a varry smart dog she is a lab mixed with something els i am takeing her to 4-h if i can find out when it starts and git the papers and i do plan on showing her in obedince possably agility and showmanship depending on how she dose in class.

She's a puppy! She's not going to be perfect right away. It will takes weeks, and probably months for your dog to pick up everything you're trying to teach him.

It takes a lot of time, and patience, and consitancy. Labs especially, are very active, hyper dogs, and are at times difficult to train.

Buy some "Dog Trick" books, and do some research online, etc to try and find the perfect situation for you.

I can't really understand half of what you're saying because your grammar/spelling is so bad...hahah

What bad habits?????????

How old is she and how often do you take her outside for potty breaks?

workingdog · 11-05-2006, 06:09 PM

The whole point of house breaking is taking them out often enough so that they do not go in the house.I have a 5 month old pom and i swear that for the frist few months, i lived out side( no joke) Now i take him out every 1/2hour, being a little breed and a pup believe me they go that often.At times i felt like giving up, i allso do day care,so it was a lot of work but now i have a house broken pup. I'm very happy that i stuck with it cause he is so worth it.One big no-no people make is not watching them close enough. They go potty in the house one time with out you seeing it and your back to square one.

You've got to watch your dog every second. I still have to watch my (almost) 2 year old dog just in case

i have no clue how old se is she has had her adalt teath now for about 3 mounths if that helps. and i have no clue how oftin she gose out

Dulce · 11-07-2006, 04:01 AM

You are the one that lets her our right?? How would you not know how often she goes potty?

If you don't know, maybe keep tabs on it. Count how many times you let her out.

EIther way, she will need to go out every hour or so. (If that) I take mine out as often as I can.

no acculy im not the only 1 that lets her out and when grandpa comes home from work he takes both of the dogs and lets them run all around the yard for around 2 howers and im not watching them so.....

Structure is key to housetraining a dog. So is positive reinforcement. Everyone is the house needs to agree on the process and reward good behavior with a little treat, play time, play with a special toy or a belly rub. Once nothing but good & fun is associated with going to the bathroom outside it will naturally decrease if not eliminate the inside accidents.

When we first got our puppy we wouldnt leave her out of our sight! When she was not sleeping we were watching her every move. So if we saw her sniffing we would take her out as soon as possible. We had her housebroken in two weeks, however we left a little tub of puperoni's outside and every time we took her and she went we would praise her like crazy and give her a treat. She caught on quick and loved going because she noticed how happy we were when she went. Also she enjoyed the treats! Treating and Praising was the trick! Dont get discouraged. This is my first big dog and she was house trained very fast. However, I have had small dogs my whole life and they are MUCH HARDER to housebreak. They have such tiny blatters they have to go all the time! Keep a close eye on her and you should be fine....
