First, do you want her to use pad as emergency back up? If not you need to learn her signs and take her out before she goes. After eating (forget the 20 minutes) take her out to the pee spot till she does 1 and 2. Mark it with a clean up mistake so she smells her spot. Make a pen there if you can't keep her in target area, After she starts (Not before or she'll stop and get distracted and not go till later), praise and treat. I call it "cheering the running water"(even if its a number 2, lol), get a word or phrase such as "Go Potty". Don't trust her for at least a week of 100%, also you need to clean and enzyme your house or you'll always have indoor spots.
The more dedicated (I know its stressful watching a dog constantly) the quicker it will work and every accident is Two Steps Backwards, So stay close even leash if you have to. |
