You and I are in similiar boats. Troy is about 15 months old. I started potty training him as a puppy with an expen that had pads. I had a revelation one day to start crate training. Just two weeks ago actually.
I work full time so I'm on a bit different schedule than you. Here's what I do. He doesn't sleep in the crate a night mind you.
5:30 am Troy is let outside. (he pees and poos)
When he's let back in he goes to sleep while I'm getting dressed.
7:00 am Troy is let out again (he pees)
In the house, to the crate he goes. (his crate has a blanket, soft toy and a bully stick)
2:30 pm Troy is let outside (pees and poos)
He stays out the crate watching tv with my daughter and baby sitter until I get home from work.
4:30 I'm home from work, gets let out pees
7:00 is usually when he eats
8:00 Troy is let out (pees and poos)
10:30 let out again for the night...Goodnight moon!
He's had 2 accidents in the crate and thats when I rushed in the morning and didn't allow him to get a poop out.
Stick with the consistency. I also think she might be spiting you when she pees in the crate. |
