Donating YT 10K Club Member | Put the pad in the bathroom. It is much easier if you paid attention to when he goes. They are very regular. Mine all go first thing in the morning...and again around 5. Those are the times I know they must go outside. When you take him...make sure you walk him around...walking stimulates their bowels.

| I had this problem with Couver when he was 5 months old. He preferred to poop inside, but would potty outside. I found that putting him on a retractable leash when I walked him helped. He needed more room to walk around and figure things outside. I also figured out his poop schedule, and I make sure to take him out often.

| Is your little guy free fed or do you feed twice a day? Free feeding can be hard to work with to get them house broken. If he eats two (or three) meals a day, you can take him outside after each meal. If he doesn't poop, keep him confined indoors for a bit and take him outside again. Keep doing it till he gets the idea. It can seem like a lot of work but you have to be consistent and it will pay off!! |
