Hi, it's me again. Just when days go by, and Sasha is doing great, always 'doing her business' outside, we become complacent and hopeful, and think FINALLY...!
Just now, right in front of me, she peed on the floor! NO attempt to try and let me know, go to the door....anything!
I really am discouraged. As mentioned, she is 5 yrs. old, and was NOT trained to go outside when we got her from a breeder over 2 months ago. We have been diligently working on the potty training ONLY OUTDOORS since day one, and I can't understand the accidents at this point. We have ALWAYS made a huge fuss with rewards every time she pees and poops outside. We are now at 9 weeks that she had been with us, and my schnauzers in the past, trained from puppies 'got the message' before this amount of time!
I really am feeling low at this point....I am out of ideas of anything else to try that we are not already doing.
