I am also trying to bell train her to go in the garage. Because of where we live, I cannot depend on her pottying outside unless I take her on a leash. Its funny...she will sleep in her crate from from 11 pm until 6:30 and can hold it, but pee's a millions times a day! Still having 2-3 accidents on the carpet daily. |
It amazes me how much control Oliver has. Gosh before the wee wee pad, I used to take a Oliver out for walks hoping he would establish a potty routine outside from the start but he would go for HOURS outside without going potty, but of course as soon as we get inside, he would mark my whole house lol.
I wonder if your puppy is the the same but my Oliver needs two pads together: one for #1 and one for #2. At first it's a bit messy since he walks around when he does #2 but now he fits it all on one pad (proud mommy!). When I catch him in the middle if an accident, I would clap my hands and pick him up, bring him to his pads but he usually just stops all together and refuses to stay on the pads. I found that he almost always go when we are not in the room, even when he goes on his pads. I understand he needs his privacy but it's hard to catch him making mistakes if he's always sneaking around
