Help Hi everybody, I'm new to this site and I have a 2 year old yorkie! Sad to say she is not potty trained yet! I have puppy pads in one area she goes on, but occasionally she will go on the carpet! It gets frustrating! She poops on the carpet too! How do I start potty taining her? I really need to do this! Any advice will help! thanks John |
I say you should have two places for her to go pee pee and poo poo. They usually like that. And how often do you change the wee wee pads? Sometimes they miss because their wee wee pads are too dirty already. Try changing them often. |
Now that she is in the habit of going on the carpet, it will be nearly impossible to break her of it. My advice is to keep her confined to a hard surface floor, and don't ever allow her to run on the carpet unsupervised. You will have to catch her in the act every time and scold immediately. Every time she goes without being caught just reinforces the behavior. Invest in some gates. |
thats true unfortunately i asked for advice to late and allowed mine to roam around when i first got him and now hes giving us trouble he will even hold his bathroom on hopes that hell get out and he can go to his fav spot on the carpet, so yes once they are used to carpet and their fav spots its hard, my poor baby is confined to the bathroom am im herat broken but hey i need to save my carpet my house is smelling like a zoo, its gross and im getting mad, in a nice way |
I'd go back to confining in one room, with pee pee pad in there. I goofed up at first and thought since she was trained in one room, she was house trained, NOT. lol. Adding each room was like house training all over again. I slowly added one room at a time. That worked better. Also the spots she picked to pee on the carpet, I put a pee pad over! Really need something good like Simple Solution from Petsmart or somewhere like that to get the smell out so they won't go back to the same spot. I found out just carpet cleaning, as soon as I found the pee spot didn't get the smell out. And I have a big, good carpet cleaner too! Really thougth I was getting all the pee up! After following the directions on it, I found it soaks to the pad. Have to about keept them tethered to you everytime you add a room! |
