Morning! Sadie is 2 1/2 years old...she still isn't totally house broken...

[my fault] anyway, I have had several dogs in my lifetime...crate training is the best...It was difficult with Sadie, when I first got her I was working..my Mom and Dad did doggy day care for me...so going back and forth I think confused her. I will be getting a new puppy in a couple of weeks. I plan on blocking her in the kitchen..{with food, water, toys and a dog litter box} I am hoping once the new pup is litter trained Sadie will go in there too...A dog will usually go where another has gone. Have you tried bring her outside after eating? I will do this with Sadie...I will walk her around the yard and his gets things moving....I would NEVER stick an animals nose in poop! This will only encourage them to eat it

!! Then you will have another issue to deal with. Don't yell at her either..If you see her going pick her up and put her on the pee pee pad, or outside, if she finishes where you put her PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE!! Give her a little treat, something she wouldn't normally get and tell her how good she is.
