HELP! My puppy will not stop peeing in my house. I need suggestion that work.?

Answer 1

A puppy is like a baby. He will relieve himself anywhere, anytime. Because a newly adopted adult dog is unfamiliar with your home, he may not understand where he should "go"! Housetraining, or teaching your dog to go outside to relieve himself, is an important lesson your dog must learn.
It is up to you, the new parent, to housetrain your new puppy or dog with patience, love and understanding.
CRATE TRAINING
In the wild, wolves live in a den or cave. It is important the entire wolf pack keep this area clean. The same idea works with your family pet. Your dog’s crate is his home, his bedroom. It is likely that your dog will not like to soil his bed. Therefore, he will wait until he is let out to do his business.
HOUSETRAINING WITH YOUR CRATE
On average, puppies can hold their bladders one hour for every month they have been alive, plus one hour. For example, if you have a three month old puppy, he can wait 3 + 1 = 4 hours. If you work longer than this, the best solution is to have someone (a neighbour, a relative, a dog walker) come in at an appropriate time to let your dog out.

100 PER CENT SUPERVISION
Supervision is the key to housetraining! While you are at home, your dog must be supervised. Whether you are watching television, making dinner, on the phone or on the computer, your puppy must be watched. While it sounds like an impossible task, it isn’t. Keeping the crate in a social part of the house makes it easier. Using a house lead – a small, thin lead with a little clip on it – also helps immensely. Outside, you put a lead on your dog so you can control him. If the lead is removed after returning home, control is lost. For example, when watching television, have the lead tied to a couch leg. Your dog can have his blanket and toys with him. He’ll feel safe and comfortable. The majority of accidents happen when your pup wanders off and you haven’t noticed. You don’t want him to sneak off into the kitchen and find a puddle a short time later. If your pup is kept from wandering, the possibility of an accident is diminished because he will not eliminate where he is sitting. 100 per cent supervision means ensuring your dog is playing with you, in his crate, outside or on his house lead.

SCHEDULING
In the morning, take your dog outside. He should urinate and possibly have a bowel movement. Spend about five to seven minutes with him and then bring him in. Do not play with him yet. Feed him breakfast, either in the crate or with the lead, and supervise it. If your pup did not have a bowel movement earlier, take him back outside about 15 minutes after he has eaten. Use the lead to keep your pup moving along while outside. Otherwise, he may start sniffing, stopping and playing to avoid the job at hand. You can say “hurry up” and your dog will begin to associate these words with the task at hand. Praise him excessively when he has eliminated. Bring him back in the house and place him in his crate if you are going to work. Continue to supervise him with the crate or the lead if you are home. When returning after being out, go directly to the crate, let him out, praise him and put him back in. Feed him his meal, take him outside 15 minutes after he has eaten, praise him after he eliminates, and bring him back in. Continue to follow the same steps consistently.

While you are home, you should take your pup outside on a regular basis. Even if your pup is in a crate or on a house lead, he still needs the opportunity to eliminate. Also, be careful what you wish for! A pup who barks to go outside may be cute and clever now. However, you must try not to fall into the habit of leaping up every time your dog wants in or out. It is a very submissive gesture on your part. Have your pup wait a moment or two.

Setting up a schedule is also a good idea. If your pup is under four months of age, take him out for five minutes every hour on the hour. If your pup is over four months old, take him out every second hour on the hour. The schedule will help you remember when to take him out. Go out for five minutes only. It provides the opportunity to eliminate even if your pup may not need to go. Take your dog out after active play and also after napping. If an accident occurs, you may have forgotten to take him out .

FEEDING TIME
Having a puppy drink a lot of water and then placing him in his crate is much more unkind than letting him be a bit thirsty for an hour or two. Adult dogs should have access to drinking water at all times. However, this is not the case for untrained pups. Most parents will not allow their children to drink a big glass of water before going to bed. Avoid setting your pup up for failure. Restrict his water intake to three or four drinks daily and make sure you remove the water dish about three hours before bedtime. This will help your dog sleep more comfortably.

If it is a hot evening, supply your pup with a few ice cubes. They will enter your dog’s system at a slower pace. When feeding your pup, provide a high-quality food that is a good source of protein. The food must be concentrated so your puppy’s body doesn’t require much of it. If you feed less, your puppy eliminates less. Food is directly related to how well puppies do in their housetraining.

EXERCISE
It is important that your pup gets a lot of exercise, especially while crate training. You can play fetch, chase or hide and seek in your home. You can call ‘come’ at the same time to provide further training. Anyway you do it, your pup needs to be able to run and play.

Answer 2

First when u clean it do not use a cleaner that contains amonia.This will attract him back. Then a good training tip is to start with newspaper. Everyday move it closer to the door until it is just outside and then on the final day on the grass. This should take a week. And every time he eats take him outside and first thing in the morning and pretty much everytime u see him. And when he gets it right praise him and make a big fuss. when he gets it wrong don't shout or smack him, Show him and say NO in firm voice and do not give any attention or eye contact for five minutes. This is the worst punishment for a pup. It is labor intensive but works

Answer 3

Please dun hit the puppy. You are only sending a msg that peeing is wrong and not teaching the pup where to pee. As time passes, it will not pee in front of you thus making it harder to teach. Hiting it will make the pup doubt you too. Only educating it will build the bond between you and him

First of all, choose a spot and stick with it. Bring the pup to the spot every hour, giving command "pee". When it does correctly, praise generously. If it doesnt pee after 5mins. Bring it back.

When it relieves wrongly or when the pup shows signs of peeing, says "no" in a firm tone, carry it with risk of dirtying yourself to the spot and says "pee"

Place the puppy in a crate to teach it how to hold. That's how i teach my JRTs.

Patience and Consistency are the key to dogs training. Hope you succeed soon.

Answer 4

You need to sticks its nose in the pee and say no. Then take the puppy outside in grass and say good girl/boy. Then bring the puppy back inside and put it in its crate. It will learn to stop peeing in your house. But you have to be consistent and firm, otherwise it wont work.

Answer 5

Crate or leash training are the best way to go about it. If you opt for the crate, keep your puppy in the crate except for when you are there to interact with him. Make the crate just big enough for him to stretch out in saving one corner for his food & water. A puppy will not pee where he sleeps so won't pee in his crate. A leash is much cheaper than a crate, but unless you are with your puppy 24/7, it's not practical. If it's possible to bring your puppy with you wherever you go, leash training is a way to train your pup to do anything you want. You can tie the handle of the leash to your belt loop to keep your hands free while your pup is 'forced' to heal with you. Take him outside before and after every meal and give him lots of praise when he does his business outside. Having him on leash indoors keeps him with you so that when he squats, you can stop him with a sharp "NO" and bring him outside immediately to finish what he started outside. It's also best to not allow him see you clean up the mess he's made indoors - if he sees you clean it up, he'll figure it's okay to do it, you'll just clean it for him. Or he may turn out like my dog who thinks she's helping me by eating her messes...yuck!

Answer 6

Try to catch him in the act, sternly say "no" and take him outside.
Also, try taking him outside every hour or so, and when he pees outside, tell him he's a good boy and pet him. He'll soon make the association that peeing outside is good.
It's a very time-consuming job to housetrain a pup, but it's a must!

Answer 7

You must watch ur puppy carefully when you see any tell-tale signs that hes going to pee quickle say NO! grab him and put him outside then say "Make a pee pee!" and when he pees praise him. Before you go to sleep at night, if he sleeps with you take him outside and say "make a pee pee!" and then eventually with persistance he'll learn that peêing inside is wrong and outside is good! Thats how we house trained all of our dogs- its works

Answer 8

I used to buy a specific spray bought in a veterinary clinic that increase the desire to pee in puppies,and i used to spray on newspapers outside the house,on the balcony.
It worked.

Answer 9

Put newspaper down in his fave spot for peeing until he associates the paper with his pee....gradually move the paper towards the door until eventually he gets it put outside and pees on the paper outside.....then when hes got the hang of that....remove the paper and he will be peeing outside.....but remember the key is loads and loads of praise...reward him for peeing where he should...and dont reward him for where he shouldnt.....he will soon learn the difference.....I used this method with my German Shepherd pup and within a coupla weeks he was peeing outside and asking to go out to pee.....Good luck.

Answer 10

get him a cat litter boxand go to the pet shop buy some drops and put some drops in the box where you want him to pee that will teach him where to go. You will have to clean it out just like you would if he were a cat it works and it's better than your house smellling like pee everywhere.

Answer 11

Well, whatever spot he pees in sprinkle cayenne pepper, and you may just wanna do it all around. He will definitely not pee there any longer. And take him out more often until he is trained, and then when you leave for work keep him/ her in the pet carrier.
