Help!

So my pigpen(8mo) is being very very bad! He has been going pee everywhere, and he is potty trained to go on his pee pad. My other dog peanut(1 1/2) is very good on his pad, but pigpen has not only been going pee right on the side of the pad ( right next to it) but went on the middle of the floor and on the couch..and worst of all he went poo on the couch!!!! So unlike him. He KNOWS where to go I know he does, and the pooing on the couch???? I know he isnt sick or a bladder infection or anything like that...I have been taking them on half hour walks everyday and he gets attention they sleep with us...I dont know what it is...Does anyone know what it would be?? Or how can I get him to be better!!

Thanks-
Very frustrated Mommy

Just like TLC said start from new, you may want to use a cage to keep him in at night, as they don't like to go their. I took them out every 4 hours and if they did their business they got a treat. Good luck

Hmm ok well he sleeps through the whole night...its during the day when he goes pee and poo every where!! Should I keep him off the couch?Its hard because he can jump on it so when we are not home he will go up there any way... It just sucks because he knows where to go its like he is playing with my head!! I guess I just have to treat him like he is a baby pup again!!!

When left home alone, he should be contained either in a small room, expen or crate. He is regressing in his training, so start at the beginning again...It shouldn't take long for him to 'remember'

Oh, yes! I have just learned this wonderful little lesson myself.....8-12 mo old puppies are going through their teen years and do regress sometimes. Go back to what you did in the very beginning potty training....it works, and works MUCH more quickly than the beginning training!! It only took 1-2 weeks for me to get Bella back on track....good luck!
