This worked so well for Jazzie - I point to the grass and say go pipi, she squats and goes  , it is her best trick  .
The other thing that worked for her in the house is I hang jingle bells (bought at Michaels) on a fabric, (string whatever you have) I would stand at the door and say outside pipi, I'd take her paw and help her smack it, then a cheerio, 2 - 3 times and she got it, she loves cheerios  .
Keep at it, persistance is the key, do searches online for potty training, I saw saw you tube videos as well. Then tailor the info to fit you and your furbaby. Good luck. |
Thank you so much for taking the time to write all of that! I really need tons of help! I'll definitely start praising her as she's going. I've been waiting until she's done b/c I'm so afraid if I start talking to her while she's in the process she'll get excited and stop! That is a great trick, btw! If Bella ever pees on command I might just fall over from a heart attack!
I bought the tell bell almost a week ago, and she's terrified! She won't even go to the door anymore because she's so afraid of it! It's still by the door, but now I've quit making her ring it, and I've stopped ringing it too. Now, I'm just trying to get her used to it. I feel like we made some progress last night because she ate a few treats off of it and didn't run, hide, and pee on herself when she nudged it and made it ring.
One day at a time with these little ones, I guess.
Thanks again!
