Urine stains on hardwood floor Hi everyone, This is my first post on the forum. I've been spending a lot of time here recently :D I recently got little Milo, and he's only 11 weeks old. I haven't been very steadfast in housebreaking due to my busy schedule and schoolwork, but he's been peeing on the pee pads in his playpen consistently. I've let him loose around the first floor of the house a couple times (oops), and he's had more than a few accidents on both hardwood and ceramic floortiles. I've learned to keep him on a leash near me now... there haven't been any accidents lately. I was wondering if there was any solution to removing urine stains from hardwood; brand/type of spray? I wanted to buy Nature's Miracle, but they say it cannot be used on hardwood :thumbdown Any suggestions would be great! |

removing urine Quote:
An enzymatic if the best way to totally eliminate the protein in pet waste that attracts the dog back to the same area. It what we use in our product. Standard household cleaners to not have this. Can you try it on the floor in a hidden area to see what happens? Maybe there is an oil in the product that would cause concern for staining the floor? I know we use our product on wood floors, and have not had an issue. Maybe spray a small area where he has gone potty, but wipe it up rather then leave it on the floor? It just needs to stay long enough to interact with where the urine has been. Kathy |
Great information, will use it on my new baby when we get her |
Will try a different type enzyme cleaner. Different house, but I think previous owner had dogs. Thanks so much!! |
Thanks for the info on the book. We have read several and though the methods seem very similar, we've had very limited success. The frustration level is beginning to impact our bond and we don't want that! The book should be here by tomorrow and I'll read it thoroughly, trying hard to ignore my guilt over crating him for so much of the day. |

Pee Pad Training I have 1, 3 year old Yorkie and just got another 10 week old. my 3 year old (Harlie) is trained and we have a dogie door. The 10 week old ( Moose) is to tiny to use it. We also live in Idaho and have about a foot of snow on the ground and temperatures in the teens so having him outside seems a little dangerous for his age. I bought a crate today, and have placed a pee pad and bed in it along with a chewie. My question is do you put the crate in the bedroom with you or another room. Harlie sleeps with us and I fell bad that the puppy can not. Any help with training such a tiny baby would be much appreciated. Thanks |
potty training 1 Attachment(s) I love the name Moose for a little dog. I know he will have attitude! I see you are looking for suggestions on how to get your dog to use a puppy pad inside. Most puppy pads have a scent to attract the dog, so this should be all you need. My only concern is placing the puppy pad in a crate. Is Moose sleeping in the crate as well? Most dogs will become stressed if they are forced to sleep and go potty in the same location. If you want to train Moose to go potty in one area, may I suggest having a crate (with his bed inside and chew toys) and have the crate door open to a play area. Make one with the baby fences you can buy at walmart. This will create a 6-8 foot play area, and in that area you can place your potty on one side, and water on the other. Moose will have an area to sleep, play and go potty. Once he is used to the area, you will no longer need the fence. It is important to keep him confined during training.crate training my yorkie.jpg Let us know what happens. Kathy |
I'm going to have to look into this. I've had my yorkie since June and we STILL are having issues with potty pad training. Sometimes she does really well for a day or two, and then she does horrible again. This is the first yorkie I've had and I love her dearly, but between her behavior and the pottying... she is a stressful one! :) |

I'm sure it will work, please let us know. I find that just being consistent brings a dog a sense of what is expected, and less stress. So starting with a controlled environment is critical, and more freedom as she learns what is acceptable. I know it will happen This is a smart baby. |

Can this be used for my 7 week old yorkie. Help. She's so tiny l lb 5 oz) that it seems to me that her bladder is too small. I've had her for a week and I want to train her to wee wee pads. I've ordered the book ant it should be here the first part of next week. |

Here is my solution, be flexible. I normally schedule a potty time for me just prior to my dogs potty time as a warm up. To keep his interest I feed him treat while sitting, I mean setting an example |
I am going to try it... I'm so glad I found it. Fingers crossed it works...I have two 8 month old brothers and at first the were doing great with both the potty pad and outside,but now are both peeing everything. They both are scheduled for they're neuter on May 5th and I'm hoping it helps. |
