Tucker is now 6 months old and he still has a few accidents in the floor occasionally. Sometimes though I dont think they are always accidents. I think he does it on purpose if he gets mad at me. The way we trained him was with an exercise pen lined with his pee pads. With using the pen I was able to lock him in the area till he pee'd and I was able to praise him for it when he did it. Because they dont have bladder control for long periods of time, if I was going to be gone more than an hour or two I would put him in the exercise pen instead of his kennel so I knew he could potty while I was gone if I needed to. If I wasnt going to be gone to long or just needed him out of trouble for a bit while I was doing other things I put him in his kennel. Now he jumps in the exercise pen on his own and does his business. I have recently reduced the pen from the full size that it was to just being about 2ft x 4ft. |
