| potty training no he is not neutered yet, we are going to breed him with haley sometime next year when haley gets bigger, she is way to tiny now, she's only 3lbs. |

| Unfortunately if you breed him the problem of marking probably will get worse.......not written in stone but most of the time, they do it, its instinctual. SOunds kinda silly, but maybe if you put some kind of upright object like a pole on a stand on the pad he will learn to hike there. |

| I'm curious why not train him to just go outside? If you can a dog to go on the pads, you can train them to go outside. Doesn't it start to stink after a bit? Even if you do change the pads often, I mean, having a dog mess in the house all the time can't smell all that great. I'm not trying to be rude, so please dont take it that way. I'm just asking a question. It just doesn't make much sense to me.

| Hi Baxter is 13 weeks old and goes on his pee pad,(mostly) because the temps in Iowa are so cold. He is all about treats, so I got him some Natural choice puppy drumsticks. He will go and then look at me for his treat. I think treats and praise are the way to go. |

| potty training oh believe me i clean my house everyday, and they are gated in the kitchen when i am at work, and they are trained to got outside too, but it's kinda hard to totally train them to go outside when you work 6 days a week 9 1/2 hours a day???? when i go home i let them out in the yard for about 1/2 hour and when my husband gets home he lets them out, they do great outside, my girl is fully paper trained - its just the boy, i also have to spend $200.00 for a rug scrubber for my carpet believe me i am a clean freak !!!

| Try belly bands! They have been a HUGE help with me and the accidents that Gage still has. He is trained to go on his pads but he does still have the occassional accident. He's also trained to go outside, for the most part....he will still come inside and poop on his pads (guess he thinks he's too "good" to poop in the grass..LOL). |

| It's a strip of cloth with a pad in the middle that wraps around their torso so it covers their twig and berries.

| Pets cannot be placed in a spot and expected to sit there. Pets, especially puppies, are full of life and movement. They need the opportunity to interact and be part of your family. Another reason pets are not like appliances is that they have to go to the bathroom. If we train them well, this will be easy from the start.I have found some good pottytrainingapp from searching google. You may try this apps for become a special potty trainer for your little boy Harley .More brilliant tips here petful101.com |
