Answer 1

I use nature's miracle in my home, and it does wonders removing odor.

When does the dog have accidents? At night? During the day? When excited or scared?

~What might cause your housebroken pet to eliminate indoors inappropriately?
~Health problems (diarrhea, change in diet, garbage eating, kidney failure, constipation, anal sac inflammation, diabetes, medications such as prednisone)
~Hormonal issues (marking territory especially if anxious about another pet, or a pet visible out the window)
~Anxiety (separation anxiety experienced when left alone)
~Submissive Urination (submissive pets act like infant puppies and urinate upon seeing a dominant human being. They do this to indicate they are not a threat to us and to ask us not to hurt them)
~Behavior (pets not reinforced for the correct behavior or that don’t know what we want)
~Pheromone stimulation (chemical messengers, the pheromones, in a pet’s urine that remain on the floor act like neon signs signaling THIS IS THE PLACE)

Answer 2

Your dog needs to be trained. It is not having accidents it is doing it because the little thing is excitible. all small dogs are. Your best bet is to get those training pads for puppies. There is something in them that makes them go to them when they have to go. The best thing to get rid of the smell is to kill it with bleach. If you can not use bleach then use something that gets rid of the odor not covers it up.

Answer 3

train it to not go potty on ur carpet or floor. and if she or he keeps on doing that than pour vinigar on it because it gets the smell and stain away. it will still probably smelll like vinigar so after she or he smells it she wont go in that same spot but after she or he smells it that spray ferbreeze on it.

Answer 4

You can buy pads and sprays that ur dog will use the bathroom on. It has some kind of smell on them that makes them do that.

Answer 5

You have to remove the smell where he have his accidents or he will continue to use that spot. You have to keep your eyes on the dog and take him out whenver he needs to go, eventually he will learn to controle her/himself.

Answer 6

You need to go back to the very beginning and retrain your dog from the start - it won't take long.
