I just (last night) got my 5mos. old to go outside. I am in shock. She was trained to pee pads then began ripping them up! So...I crated her after she ate & drank. I took her outside every 20 min. (for 10-15 min.) & gave her the "go potty" command. It took about 4 hours, but she finally went! I gave her a cheerio immediately to reinforce her going outside. (cheerios are the only "treat" she will eat.) Then, I crated her overnight (yours cannot probably do that yet.) I woke her up early this morning & took her to her potty spot straight away. She went pee & poop almost immediately. Again, reinforce with the cheerio. Now...I have to keep it up during the day (today.) Hope she doesn't pee or poop when I am not looking. I really don't want her going on pee pads anymore, or going all over the house ! Good luck. |
