Need Help Indoor Potty Training My wife and I are trying to train our 5 month old yorkie :aimeeyork to pee on a wee pad indoors. She refuses to go on it and will always pee or poop on the floor instead. We even tried sprays to help her want to go on the pad more and she still does not want to use it. We live in a high rise apartment and want her to be trained to use the bathroom indoors on her pee pad. Any suggestions? We are getting so frustrated! :mad: |
I'm not sure exactly what to suggest.... but I can tell you what I did. I am up in the back corner of the 5th floor in a buiding in the city. I would probably be constantly going up and down if it weren't for the pads. :) I bought two of the purina second nature litter boxes for dog......but instead of the litter i have the peepee pads down in them. [I also bought a diaper genie for the used ones.... and I flush his No. 2s immediately...] I would put Riley in it, just as I would if he were to be going outside... after eating, after sleeping and after playing... and I would make a "HUUUUUUUUUGE" deal of it.... Clapping, telling him GOOOD BOY.... and just letting him know how Happy I was..... when he would go in it... I mean like if my neighbors heard me they probably thought i was crazy. I didn't really have any problems. After a few days.... I would just go over to it and call his name and point into it and tell him, Riley, Go Potty.... He will be 1-year old next month and I still do that every once in a while. He is 100% peepee pad trained and he will also go outside.... When I take him to my parents house I can put a pad down in the corner and he will go use it when he needs to. Good Luck!! :D |
A lot of times when pup starts using the bathroom , the pup will go to the same area to eliminate herself. Try placing a pee pad on the floor when she has been going. This would be the first step in getting her to use a potty pad. I have 2 girls who would prefer using the pads in the hallway, so ia place aseveral pads in the hallway, and have had no problems with them going to the pads. The pads are suppose to have some type of oder to want the dog to use them. Since she is new to the pee pads, place a few where she has been going on the floor. Sometimes a pup does not like going pee and poo on the same potty pad. |
