Pee pads are no better. She seems to love peeing inside so we figured we would try those... all she does is move them around the house and then pee on the carpet. According to some quick research and a few phone calls, apparently, to my dismay, she was crate kept her entire life, so she was never potty trained at all beyond, "i can go when i want because my crate gets cleaned every day".
Any more suggestions? Has anyone been in this unique predicament before?
Thanks again for everyones help and support and in return for your help here's another action shot of her playing with casey's toy (which is about a big as she is): |
Are you getting up to take her out for potty during the night? If not you really should be, expectably if you are finding pee in the cage in the am.
Also if you have not already... Find some way to condense her cage to limit her access to go potty. Because, dog generally will not potty where they sleep even as young as 10 days old. Unless they have no other choice like not being taken out when needed. You may want to purchase a cage with a divider. I found one at wal mart to give you some idea. Please read my tips on potty training off of my web site, I am sure that you find them to be very hellpful.
