 Lulu has forgotten her potty training
Ugh. Lulu just turned 4 last week and for some reason she has forgotten her potty training. She is litterbox trained and she has decided she can go anywhere around the box but doesn't have to always go IN the box.
I can't figure out why this is happening. I scold her everytime she goes on our rug and praise her (and give her treats) when she goes in her litterbox. I am sure she smells the scent of her previous potties on the rug no matter how hard I try to eliminate the smell.
The only thing I can think of is that my sister's dog, Gracie, is pee pad trained and goes on a pad when she visits us. Do you think Lulu thinks because Gracie doesn't go in a box that she doesn't have to either? Do you think there could be something else causing her to do this? I could cry every time I have to scold her for going on the rug.
HELP! |
