| Potty training issues Got a 10week old puppy named Ziggy. We live in a house and are in the process of potty training him on a pee pad. He is pretty good when peeing on the pad but has his mistake here and there. The issue is he never goes number two on the pad he prefers a corner or behind something. If you have experienced this please give me feedback. |

| I had that problem as well. What I did was constantly watch her and when I noticed she was doing the dirty I picked her up while in the stance and moved her to the pad. Once she finished I went over the top with praise and gave her one of her special treats. This has worked for me as she is pretty consistent with the pad now. Hope this helps.

| Princess was a sneaky pooper for quite some time. She loved to go behind our steel frame reclining couch that is very difficult to move an inch! So I blocked that off & put things under the end tables (her other spot). Then when I would see that she went I would take "it" and put it on the pee pad, call her to it & when she would smell it I would give her the "Go Potty" command and a treat. She did catch on to this rather quickly, however she was much older than your pup, who may not have enough of a "heads up" to get to the pad yet, as she is still so young.
