Am I training her incorrectly? I am almost afraid to ask this since there are already so many threads, but I will anyway. I don't think Lily realizes that she is suppose to potty outside yet. I think she only goes outside when she happens to be there and the notion hits her. She never goes to the door asking to be let out and doesn't always potty when she does go out. A lot of times she will go out and come back in to immediately potty on the carpet. I began with potty pads but she would just not go on them at all.
So now I take her out often and tell her why we are there, but... I don't think she cares.
When I do catch her I correct her and take her out. Is she untrainable? I did the black light thing on my carpet the other night and OMG I was horrified at what I saw. I hope one of you are a master potty trainer and can help me.
