I think it could be a developmental thing, and your dog just hasn't realized yet that it's okay to potty outside. Maybe if you could take her on an extended leash walk at a time you're sure she has to potty, she will go out of desperation, and you can praise her profusely to let her know that it's an okay thing to do. |
Thanks hun. Lol at little nuggets. I try to get sparkle to walk on a leash but she just drags her butt doesn't matter if treats are involved or not. We usual don't get past my house before I take her in. My yard is big so she runs free there but I would like her to go on my daily 2mile run. Hopefully I can figure out something and it'll all work out perfectly.
