That was Riley too! I would walk him four blocks and he would head straight for the piddle pad or paper when he came in.
This is what I am trying now, and having success: Every time I catch him in the act on the pad, I say, "Good boy, taking care of business!" I have started saying, "Take care of business," when we are walking, and he has started to do it! Now, when I take him out, I have a little bag of treats along with me. Each time he does what I say, he gets a little treat- they are just a different kind of kibble than his usual food. He is getting so rotten with it that he lifts his leg, even when he doesn't have to, squeezes out one tiny drop, and then waits for a treat! |
