i am not going to make any assumptions but if a dog is peeing/pooping inside their kennel could it have been from where they came from or how early they left their mother, littemates and breeder? many do not understand how important it is for toy breeds to stay with their mother/litter to at least 12 weeks because they learn so much...even housebreaking...
because from my understanding dogs/wolves do not soil where they sleep and eat unless they had no other choice. None of mine has every pee and pooped inside their kennel/crate unless they could not hold it any longer...and once they get older they tend to be able to hold it longer...housebreaking is about being consistent with the schedule and routine....the dogs will adapt to the schedule...but i wouldn't expect so much from a puppy...because 1 they are younger/smaller and do not know better....and also because they are not able to hold it as long. |
