 My Method
What has helped me out a lot as using the training pads, was to put them down in all the places where Victoria would used the bathroom or where I thought she would go, then as time went on I just would take one pad out at a time, and now I only leave one pad out and she would use that.
I learned that if I got mad at her, she got more scared and then would just go anywhere, so I decided to not to get mad but be accommodating to her and be more helpful to her to know that using the pads were better than peeing/pooping on the floor, once she got used to peeing on the pads in the places where she went, she began to recognize the pads and knew that I wasn’t going to get mad at her, but give her lots of praise and saying “good girl” which she likes more then treats.
I thought that I getting a new puppy was a mistake and was ready to get rid of her, but everyone said that she was a smart puppy and just help her to know, what I wanted her to do. So far she has been doing good, but she might only use the pad twice then you have to change it out or else. I work a lot so i put a new pad before I leave in the morning, then I come home for my lunch break and check to see if had gone sometimes she has and sometimes not, then when I get home I usually have to change it out and put a new one down, but it also depends on how much I feed her also. |
