Hi everyone, I'm looking for advice in house training our puppy, Jackson. Jackson is a miniature Aussie, and 8 weeks old. To set the scene, we live in house with a shared yard. Our neighbour's dogs, Jackson's mother and father, have a doggy door and go in and out as they please. We have been...

Our 10 weeks old husky knows that peeing in house is bad. We have established that by saying "NO" with a loud voice. She has successfully learned that ringing the bell means she can go outside but she prefers to go out to catch some bugs by the glass door. We have been constantly rewarding her...

Desperately needing help here - we have a 5 month old Standard Poodle "Nola". We got her at 10 weeks and have been diligently housetraining her - mostly me. She immediately goes pee when she goes out to the backyard, poops with no problem. She knows why she's out there. We also have two...

So, my puppy is out cold right now. I've been taking him outside every two hours during the day for a pee or a poop. The scheduled time to go out is now. Do I take him out, or do I let him sleep???

My puppy is 5 1/2 months and has mastered going outside on the balcony (to her designated area) to do her business. She will hold it all night and for prolonged periods in her crate with no problems, and when she roams free during the day she will sit by the door to be let out when she needs to...

Hi All, I am so glad I found this great forum. I adopted Baxter two weeks ago from Animal Control. When I first got him he had kennel cough, but was house trained! He never had an accident in his crate! In the past three days he has had numerous accidents (only pee); I am not sure if this is...

2 questions (sorry if they've been asked). 1. We have a 2 1/2 hour drive home with him (by unanimous consent, his name is Frodo). Car sickness avoidance advise, anyone? Is my lap better then the floor, for example. 2. To doggy litter box or not. I'm a stay at home mom and can take Frodo I...

Hi all, I tried reading several old posts (including the sticky but I'm about to read it a second time.) I didn't see something that gave me the Ah Ha! That'll work! I'm sorry in advance that this post is so long! Puppy Details: Name: Kalya (Female) Age: 4 1/2 months Breed: Sheepadoodle...

I have recently bought a miniature daschund puppy, I got her aged 9 weeks and she is now just over 11 weeks old. She is a lovely, friendly little puppy and I am absolutely delighted with my decision to take on a puppy. I am looking for some help regarding house training. She generally is very...

My dog is an 11 week old Chihuahua. It's too cold outside for my Chihuahua to go outside where I live so we are trying to use a pee pad. He was using a pee pad at the breeder's before we got him, but now he won't even walk on it. We first tried bringing him there everytime after he'd eat...

Hello everyone, (tl;dr at end) I am writing to ask for advice or tips on housetraining our papillon, who is a little over a year old now. A little backstory - we acquired her from a breeder when she was around 10 wks old, and initially we were housetraining her with pee pads due to mobility...

Hi All, I have wanted a dog for such a long time, and now we have one. She is a tiny 3 pound chihuahua, her name is Cutie. I got her as an adult about 4 months ago. I thought she was housetrained, but..... So, that is what I'm doing here. I'm hoping for some guidance and support as I try to...

Hi everyone! Our seven month old Wheaten is housetrained... as long as he's tethered to my side :P He almost never has an accident as long as we can keep him near us, but as soon as we let him roam the first floor freely, he often goes somewhere we can't see him and has an accident! We've...

I live in New Zealand and it has come to my attention that there is a female 2 or 3 year old newfie that the owner wants to sell, as she has 3 of them and they are too much. I have not seen the dog yet. She is asking 1000.00 for it and puppies are 3k here. The dog has not been in the house and...

So sometime within the last two months my two year old toy Aussie has started neglecting his house training. He is usually left around 8 hours a day but there are occasional days it is longer. When I first got him as a puppy he was able to be housetrained within pretty much two weeks. Now, even...

Hi everyone! Our Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier is 13 weeks old now and we've had him for a little over a month. I have two main concerns: 1. He doesn't seem to be making much progress on housetraining. We can usually avoid accidents by taking him out every half hour to an hour, depending on...

Hi everyone ! A little more than a week ago, I adopted an Australian cattle dog puppy (he is 11 weeks old now). He's cute and everything, we're starting to know each other. I'm of course trying to housetrain him, and he's fine with being crated. My problem is, when I take him out where I want...

So here's my crazy story.... I have a 5 yr old Chinese Crested Powderpuff I rescued a couple years ago. She has a dog door and free access to outside anytime she wants. We had some housebreaking trouble in the beginning, but once she mastered the dog door, she goes outside to do her business all...

Hey guys! I've got the 6 year old maltese x silky for a week to see if she'll like it here, so far it's been well... er one night. So while I'm expecting a few potty accidents I'm wondering how long it will take for her to get used to her new potty pads and going outside and if anyone has any...

My problem is the exact opposite of most, I WANT my dog to know it's ok to go inside the house. I'm gone all day for work, there isn't anyone to let my aging dog out, neighbors are not an option, I can't afford off-site day care or the cost of having someone come by and let him out. Before I...
