Hi all
My beagle has been at different levels of house broken. When i first got him i had him in a cage and taught him to use a pee pad. He was soon out of the cage as i could leave him to room free without fear of him going where he should not. Then one day as i was working at my computer he peed on the ground near my door (one room shed). From that point on he slowly started to stop using the pee pad and swapped to the ground. I put him back in the cage to reteach him but he was big enough to climb the fence and get out. I was then using a leach to get him to go to pee on the pee pad which worked but he started to chew the pee pads. So i gave up on them and started to take him outside, he is train to go when i command him with no problem, and i take him out everytime he wakes up, i get home/leave and when i see him sniffing around. I give him treats after he goes outside and yell at him when i catch him peeing inside (mainly the word outside). He just dose not tell me that he needs to go and is really inconsistent when he needs to go. Most of the inconsistent problems starts when another dog is here (who wont be coming over for awhile), he has gone 6 times in the space of 4 hours (not marking his space, full pees). I just dont know what to do he is just driving me up the wall.
Cheers

ps. He is 1 year old
