They way I trained mine was to take them out within a half hour after they ate, 15min after they play, and immediately upon waking up even if it a short nap. In no time pup should get the idea. | |

ok tjhink if terms of she's got the mind of say a 5yr old kid. They don't comprehend a lot of things, so you have to be consistant with teaching her to go outside. Some dogs do take to the doggie doors and some don't. Each dog jst like a humans catch on quickly while others it takes more time. The important thing is that she knows you love her and that will make her wantto please you. If you are harsh or mean ( rubbing nose in it and stuff, she will still love you cause that's what dogs do but she will then only behave out of fear and not love | |

When it starts peeing open the patio door and hurl them out into the grass. That's what my stepmother did. | |

Does the dog get excited very easily? Anxiety makes them pee. Walk the dog a lot. If she is jumpy make sure to pet her and give her love. Maybe she needs anxiety meds. All you others say Hell Yea!! | |

Take him/her to the spot where the pee is, point to it, and scold him/her - "NO! Naughty Dog!". Then, when they are out walking next, and by intelligence or luck, they go, outside - point to it and say "Good!" and give them a biscuit (carry biscuits for this). As far as I remember, that's how we did it for my dog. | |

Take 2 walks or 3 a day with the dog and with time just 2 months the dog will understand. For me it has been that easy. | |

i got nothin for you... i wasn't eem gonna say nothin BUT (sense you brought it up) i'm not holdin a grudge because when my puppy started losin his teeth it was only then that folks said "oh... they have baby teeth and they eat them" nope... i have moved on from that. you people know i have a puppy... you know i got a puppy AND NOBODY... NOBODY!!! nobody thought to bring up the possibility that i may have to, what amounts to, finger bang my dog's asshole... "express his anal glands" they said. "ummmmm how much does it cost to have it done?" i ask. "fitty bucks" she replied... OK... if you been around the org for a minit you know i don't do well with idiocy of any sort and i found that to be idiotic and i said: "look, when he turns 13 i will go get him a hooker just like a proper father would do a son BUT until that time payin for any 'sex acts' for him... HE'S ONLY ONE!!!"
PUPPY PADS, TREATS, A ROLLED UP PAGE OF THE NEWS PAPER, AND 'VOICE'... (voice bein more important than the other stuff... you'll always have that with you) and know the difference between a command and a trick. after they unnastand a command there are no treats for doin what they supposed to do... when they do tricks they get treats... i am KING BAD!!!

Welp, it's going to be a real battle cuz the dog is already a year old and has learned bad habits already. Whatever you do you must be consistent. Does the dog have a kennel? Does he use it? That's a good tool for training but might be too late already to start that. Lots of praise and again consistency. It's going to take time and effort. You can't let the dog out of your sight in another part of the house. Your eyes need to be on the dog at all times so you can immediately stop and correct the bad behavior. You must be vigilant about his habits and behavior at all times. It's a lot of work redirecting after a year of being set in his bad ways but it can be done It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN | |

I've house trained about five or six dogs. I always did it the old-fashioned way: | |

What bred of dog do you have? Maybe we shouldn't assume kiasheri has owned the dog from birth/puppy. Since your dog is a year old, now have to need to establish ( what should have been done at puppy stage) who's BOSS.
1. Walk your dog 2 times a day... the days you don't work 3 times a day. Establish a consistent time and walk your dog without fail. Taking your dog for a walk, is imperative....for the physically and psychology well being of your dog. My late father told me that people assume letting their dog out (unless you live on several acres) to romp in the backyard was enough exercise and space. Dad said, backyards "exercise" for dogs is equivalent to putting them inside a prison walking cage. That's why (especially mid to big size dogs) you see A pattern (usually around the perimeter of fence) worn/dead grass in a yard. The romping in the backyard doesn't give your dog what it needs, you're making the dog more anxious.
2. Once dog has marked and done number 1 & 2 around the house, he or she thinks its the leader. Never allow your dog to pull, or walk in-front of you. Your dog should always walk next to our behind you. Purchase a dog chain, that fits around the top of dog's neck... not a chain that can sway down towards dogs lower neck /shoulders. Give enough give that your dog doesn't have to strain her neck up but not enough so they can walk ahead of you. When you dog attempts to pull away or walk ahead, jerk/pull-up on the chain quickly, stop and in strong voice command your dog to heal and sit... if need be press his/her butt to the ground when you say sit. Keep doing this until the dogs is walking along side you or behind you... stops and sit without you telling him/her to do so. I use to take a rolled-up newspaper with me --when I jerked the chain and command sit, I'd hit the paper once, twice on the side of my leg. My dog equated my stern voice and the paper snap as disapproval. Repetition, praise and an occasional treat when she obeys your rules. Always make your dog come to you when its time to put her on a leash. Your dog never walks ahead of you, when you leave the house, walk down the stairs... you lead she follows.
Dogs piss for 2 reasons to mark territory and to urinate... there's is a difference. Walk your dog around the yard for a couple of minutes... if she wants to quick squirt around our yard fine, its her territory. I've never allowed my dogs to piss along the way when we walked; five minutes into the walk I'd stop and give him the chance to urinate or do #2... I repeated this pattern as we walked. As far as the trapped door... wherever the doggy door is located put up baby fence/gates which only give her two options do 1and or 2 in that room or go through the trap door. I'm sorry to say that room and its floor/rugs are gonna have to endure some mess until she's trained to use the doggy door to do her business outside. At this point she shouldn't have access to the whole house. My dogs either follows or hangs out with me and/or my husband. If your dog gets up and walks out the room follow her. Get in-front of her and if she doesn't follow you without you calling to her, pick her up and put her through the doggy door. What a couple of minutes, see if she comes in on her own, if not call her back in. After you walked your dog, fence her in at night. If she has the pissed or pooped on the floor...say, BAD DOG, NO, get that rolled up paper snap once, twice, put her out through the doggy door... allow her to come in on her own. Praise her when you don't see anything but her restricted her to that room and her movements until she learns, she has to access her door and do her business outside.
Thanks to my late father who taught me about dogs and training. | |

Definitely need to know the Breed cuz that could be part of the problem...I had a very intelligent but ornery Pekingese, that Fool was determined to pee in secret areas of the house...No matter how many times I walked him or let him out the back in the fenced-yard he had to show me that HE was Boss...If I leave the house and not take him with me he'd take it out on the trash can....If I dare leave him in the backyard for too long he'd sit in the middle of the back yard and bark at my house forever....Very, very stubborn.. | |
