| My five year old still gets treats for pooping in her pad - she expects them and let's me know when she's pooped by standing in front of me kicking up her back feet. BUT ther's still the one place near the sofa that she won't stay away from. I'll give this a try. Thanks. |

| Poops then carries I’m new here. Got my first inside puppy Dec 15. She’s 7 month old. Got her from a breeder. She’s pretty good at using pee pads. Sometimes when she poops, she carries it! Tonight she put it in her bed. Any help/suggestions there? I’m trying to get her trained to go outside. For the last 2 days we have gone out every 2 hours from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. still hasn’t peed or pooped outside. Just acts like she is scared. We stay out about 15-20 minutes each time because it’s cold here. No treats when we come in. Could use advice here too. Also, trying to crate train...She hates it! Using divider, she has room to stand, turn around and lay comfortably. Only leave her a couple of hours at a time. I don’t work but have to run errands and have appointments. Every time I come back I have to clean the pen and give her a bath cause she poops in her crate! REALLY need help here. I feel like she’s holding me prisoner in my home. I don’t want to give up. Thanks |

I cannot give crate training advise / suggestions as I have never crate trained any of my babies, hopefully others will chime in with what worked for them.

| Thank you! I’m not giving up, yesterday was just a trying day. I love my Cindy Lou and I know she wants to please me. I could use some crate training advice. Seems like she s having a very hard time with me leaving her. I do leave my dirty shirt with her when I have to go out. Maybe separation anxiety. I don’t know how to deal with that and can’t stay here 24/7 |

| Many member recommend for separation anxiety to see your vet for meds that will control the anxiety. Never show frustration, anger or use a harsh tone when training to potty outdoors, always take treats with you in case she does make her business you have a high value treat to reward her with. Patience and consistency are key factors with potty training.

| Prince Charming all over again Quote:
Prince Charming was the champion of them all. It took 18 months to get him to do anything outside. Would take him outside and give him the command to "go potty". WE would walk around and around the yard then he would go back inside and do his job just inside the door. I'm a professional trainer and tried every trick in the book. NOTHING WORKED! I was beginning to feel like a failure. It really got to me and Momma and my sister. One day I became so frustrated with him after he came back inside and did his business; I scooped him up and scolded him sternly then I spanked MY ARM. He never did it in the house again. To hear him you would have thought I was killing him BUT he was a Prince and everyone knows a prince cannot be spanked. Neither was my Prince Charming. NO I do NOT recommend that to you. But I do understand the frustration. You have already received some great tips on this but know many of us have gone thru the same frustrations. One thing that I did not see suggested is the reward system. Have 2 small rewards. When he goes wet outside reward him instantly with lots of high pitched praise. Make him happy with your praise. When he goes inside just clean it up and say nothing to him and give no reward. When he starts to go outside praise comes immediately but not the reward. If he goes outside again the reward is immediate with even more praise. HAPPY POTTY TRAINING it can be very frustrating and REWARDING. | |

| Is my pup confused or did I do it all wrong? Hi everyone! I'm so very happy to be a member of this forum! I really need some help. 2 years ago my mom got a yorkie (Cooper) for me as a companion and as a therapy dog because I have severe clinical depression as well as other disabilities. I have tried everything I could think of to correct Cooper's potty habits. We take him outside to potty and while he may pee outside, it's rare for him to poop outside. He waits until we come back in to poop. It's backwards!! I just wonder if he's confused? During the day he does pretty well as it's just him and me at home, but as soon as my husband comes home from work or my grand baby comes over to stay for the day he pees and poops inside. He has destroyed our laminate floor and table in the dining room from peeing on the floor. Even though he's cost us so much $$$ I can't find it in my heart to scold him. It breaks my heart to see his little ears and tail go down when my husband scolds him. I've only just been able to get him to walk on a leash in the last couple of weeks. Before that, he would lay down and roll on his back when I put the leash on him or he would pull back. He also has very high anxiety. How can I begin to correct this now at 2 years old and before we replace our flooring? Please help! I'll try any suggestion! |

| Thank you for all the suggestions! I will try taking the poop outside and putting it where I want him to go and if it doesn’t work I’ll keep trying other suggestions given here. I’ve never thought about doing that. I just can find it in my heart to raise my voice at him because he has such high anxiety and all the abused animals I’ve seen. It just makes me love him even more! |
