Anyway the trainer put us on a schedule so that it would be easier to monitor her potty times. She eats at 8AM, 1PM, and last at 6PM.Anyway to make a long long long story short I can basically pinpoint when she needs to go in the morning but after she gets that first meal all hell breaks lose. I want to we wee pad train her so in the winter we don't have to go outside. I have the wee wee pads set up in the bottom of an empty closet I keep the door open constantly & I have the baby gate up so she can't get out. Gia will start going potty in a place where she is not supposed to I will pick her up & bring her to the area where she is supposed to go (this is something the trainer told me to do) and Gia will hold it & won't go. I've kept her in there up to an hour & she won't go she'll wait until I take her out to go to potty where she is not supposed to go (The beds, the carpet, the bathroom floor, the rugs).I hear myself yelling at her & I feel bad (and the trainer told me not to yell at her).What do I need to do???? |
Its going to take time. Be patient, go have a nice martini, lol. Keep working w/ her..keep bringing her to the pad, dont let her off the pad until she goes, no matter how long it is. When she finally does go, reward her. Its definitly going to take time though, some pups still have accidents up to a year.
