Hi,
Our little Bella is finally housebroken. It took time, consistency, and ALOT of patience and praise. We took her outside every 1 1/2 hours and always said the same thing, "Go Potty,Bella". She did well, but once we paired a treat with the praise she became instantly 99% successful. it was amazing! We break her treat drops into 1/3's so she gets a very little amount, but that seemed to do the trick.
Now she goes out the door, we say "go potty" and she does. We just hung in there and stayed consistent with exactly doing the same thing.
Your furbaby will get there.
