when she pee’s on the floor rub her nose in it every time… and then put her outside for a while… she’ll soon figure it out./.
First, go out with the pup… every 10-20 minutes, depending on HER needs… when she goes, give her lots of big praise (I mean rediculous, sound like Mickey Mouse!) You need to go out with her, she’s a baby, and scared, and doesnt understand why you just booted her out the door. Be patient, she’ll get it!
PS….Would you ***** or rub a babies nose in their mess? A pup doesnt have the control or understanding either! All rubbing does is teach the dog too eat $h!t!!!
let him know in no uncertain terms what you do and don’t want him to do , all he want’s is an easy life teach him how to get one .
be a cruel stepmother for a week and you can be a loving mother for the rest of his life .
you don’t put her out, you take her out. it’s all about reward and praise when she does what she should. the first thing to remember about housetraining a puppy is there ability to hold themselves is limited. a rule of thumb is they can hold it usually 1 hour for each month of age. 2 months old = 2 hours, 3 months old = 3 hours, etc. when your puppy wakes up (marning, nap, whatever) the pup has to go, right then! take the pup out. when the pup eats or drinks, it has to go, take the pup out. after exercise (play), take the pup out. when the pup does it’s thing outside praise it. a lot. tell the pup how good, how smart it is. you have to pay attention to the pups looking for it’s spot behavior. when you see that behavior indoors, whisk the pup out. if you catch the pup in the act, simply tell it NO! and whisk it outside. if you find a puddle or pile after the fact, clean it up with an enzyme cleaner (pet food store) get a newspaper and hit…. yourself in the head and say i should have been paying more attention daytime training they get pretty fast. night time training is easier if you crate train the pup. also remember the one hour/one month rule. you will have to get up through the night to take the pup out. good luck
get rid of the mat! Take the puppy out and over praise it for going potty, then set the timer for 20 mins. take her out again and over praise her for going potty. You have to be talking to her, asking do you have to go potty? and keep doing this for a couple days. She’ll get the drift in no time. You have to actively be training her. Don’t just let her out, GO OUT WITH HER. Tell her what a good girl she was. Dogs want to please their owners. Having a puppy is like having a child. You can’t just throw it out in the back yard and expect it to learn!
Over a period of a few days: gradually move the mat nearer the door, then outside. Move the mat nearer to the part of the garden you would prefer her to go in, after a while cut a piece of the mat off and leave it in place for her.
Unfortunately you will need to say goodbye to your mat, but it is probably past it by now anyway.
throw the mat away i had 2 do that or you could try puppy training pads which are available from pets shops
keep the dog and bin the mat !!!
newspaper take the mat away
I am not sure what you mean by mat? However, he or she will continue to go on that mat until you teach it what you want. Take the puppy outside on a leash at his or her’s usual intervals lead the puppy to the spot you want it to go. give a command like go now. Once the puppy marks it will usually go back there. Now having said that you may not have success on the 1st time you take puppy out to the spot. be patient and consistent. The other thing with this type of training is you cannot allow the puppy to make a mistake in the house. Invest in a crate and puppy should be crated when you cannot supervise. take puppy out to the spot on scheduled bathroom breaks you’ll have puppy retrained with the crate in a week…
Other than the rubbing her nose in it and putting it outside, here are some other ones:
- apparently putting pepper down in that area helps.
- every time you catch her doing it, say NO! quite harshly and put her outside. every time you catch her doing it outside say Good girl! It’s all about the tone of voice. It worked for my brother’s puppy.
All the best for your potty training.
No easy way all it is wipe it up wipe it of,naughty doggy.,
after every meal out it go`s
Walkies is good.
usually good if you have older dog,that would teach pup
what to do,
So keep wiping and washing ime affraid
Hi Bree
Use a spray that you can get from your local pet store, it takes the smell away and just bring your dog to the door every 15 mins and wait for your puppy to empty and give her a treat and praise her well
well you aren’t supposed to PUT her out. You should be TAKING her out. How is she supposed to know what you want her to do outside? She isn’t psychic.
You have to TAKE her out every half hour or hour, stay with her until she DOES go, then immediately praise her and give a small treat and use a command word. I use weewee. Then eventually they learn that if you open the door and say the word, you actually want them to go to the ytoilet. Use the same word for wee and poo.
Whenever I take in a foster or rescue dog, I can have them trained in a matter of days using this method. Your puppy training book should have told you about this. Whatever you do NEVER tell it off and certainly NEVER rub her nose in it. If she wees in the house it is YOUR fault for not helping her to understand what you want from her. Good luck, although there isn’t really any luck involved, just a little time and effort but don’t be surprised if it only takes 2 or 3 days before she understands .
Dogs are not born with inbuilt obedience and understanding, they cannot read your mind and they aren’t born speaking your language and more than you will understand what her bark means. If you can treat her like a foreign person with no understanding of your language so that you have to teach them certain words and SHOW them what you want, you will be able to teach her anything with praise and reward.
BTW throw away the mat and ignore people like Sarah. I can only hope she never gets a puppy since she is so keen on abusing animals and expects them to figure it out by themselves. I reckon any pup she gets will be more intelligent than she is if it magically supposed to somehow work out for itself without any help from her. Silly mare.
Don’t try training the house…………train the dog instead.
dont punish him when he does it inside give him praice when he does it outside.
if you feed her then take her striaght out she will more then likely poo its all about timing !!!!
Give the pup lots of praise and treats usually seem to work well.
If she goes inside, ignore it completely and then take her out immediately after.
You can buy puppy training pads that you put in the area that you want her to go in.
Mine is 14 weeks and we had her house trained within about 3 days. We still have the occassional accident but that’s due to human error more than her.
Good luck!
