i'm on my first and only puppy so i can't tell if it's the case for other dogs. but bunjee is indoor potty pad trained. at home he knows exactly where the potty pad is and will go there whether it's in his line of sight or not.
at my parents' house we keep him confined to a finite space and make sure the potty pad is in sight. he had a few accidents the first few times we're over there, but what i started doing is to tell him to go on the potty pad when i feel it's time for him to go potty, not wait until he thinks it's time to go potty. nowadays, i still tell him to go on command, but if he needs to go and he sees the potty pad, he'll go on the potty pad.
at other people's homes it's hit or miss... just to be safe, i have a bellyband on him. i keep a very close eye on him after meals to see if he needs to go poo.
puppies pee and poo more often than adult dogs do. my puppy pee'd every 30-60 mins if i leave the water out for him to drink as often as he'd like. now that he's 6 months old, he pees like every 3-4 hours depending on his activity level. he'll poo 2x a day usually 30-60 mins after meals. |
Hope you can help. My friend is visiting with her 11mo. old yorkie. He is potty trained to go outside iat his home. But he keeps peeing in my house. Even if she takes him outside and he pees, he will come in pee again in my house. This has now become a problem. Also I have a 6yr old toy poodle who is housebroken. My friend's yorkie will have nothing to do with my dog. Is this normal behavior for a yorkie. Is my friends dog using my house as a toilet because of my poodle? Please help with any advise
