Well when I had him in the kitchen all the time with his pee pads, I had the crate sitting on the floor with his toys and stuff in it (with the door off since I never closed it). He would sleep in there anyway and just generally hung out in it. He's always been good with it, but by the same token he's always had access to it. (Because I've never let him roam free) Does your baby not like his house at all?
Instead of giving him free run of the house, could you baby gate him in a room that is easy to clean up when he's had an accident? And keep his crate in there and maybe he will get used to it. (That might waste more time though...?) I'm not really sure what to tell you, this is new to me as well but I've read a few books. Puppies for Dummies and Housetraining for Dummies. They've been very informative!! |
