I take my pup outside to pee a lot - and this works very well. But, if he's going to be in the house running free for any period of time (or at anyone else's house) I wrap a washcloth around him and pin it.....
This does nothing to help train him................but, it certainly keeps his pee off the carpet and other things. Whenever, he is the slightest bit damp, I put a new cloth on him. He wears these only for "my convenience" --- and I think they're worth a million dollars.
You can continue with your training - and protect your carpet at the same time. There's no rule against doing this.
Good luck! Carol Jean |
