Thank you all sooo much for the support! I know that there isn't a magical solution and that it takes time and patience. I'm just starting to run a little low on both the patience and the time
right now!
I tried putting him in our laundry room with puppy pads this afternoon. I was thinking of trying to get him back on the puppy pads to better save our carpet while trying to teach the going outside. He peed and pooped every where else BUT the puppy pads!!
So I will go back to the crate training and just be a little bit more strict on it then I have been.
I think I'm so frustrated because I get the feeling that a lot of his peeing and pooping lately, like for instance, peeing next to me on the couch, is because he is mad at me. I can understand he may be upset because of the new puppy. But how do you handle and what do you do when they are peeing and pooping to show they are mad? Do you handle it the same way as when they just pee and poop because they don't know better?
