Second, he's only 12 weeks! You've only had him for 2 weeks. You can not potty train a dog in only two weeks! Any dog! It just doesn't happen. A dog is not a cat that you can set down in a litterbox and then it's trained for the rest of it's life - dog's take a lot of training before they get it down.
Third, you bought him from a petstore, and petstore puppies are normally harder to potty train because they are kept in kennels (and often come from puppymills) where they've peed and pooped in their cage for weeks and weeks...it's all they know. So not only did you get a breed that is hard to potty train, you got it from a petstore which can make them even more harder to train.
Have you ever potty trained a dog before? It's a long difficult process. You need to learn to have some patience |
I got chewy from a pet store and not only was he fairly easy and fast to potty train but he never went in his cage...I now know more about pet stores and would not buy from one again how ever you can never know how easy or hard a puppy will be to train, weather they come from a pet store or not. *
