Answer 1

Put her food in there, on the spot she peed. This worked for my lab. They don't like to pee in their dining room.

Answer 2

a this moment you can only clean the area with some powerful cleaner . make sure the smell is all gone .
then if this happens again one you have to think about what time she comes in and does she go pee before you bring her in .
to get her to pee just try playing for few min or a walk or let her go for a run.
but when she has messed on the floor whatever in the house
you look mad and you call her to the spot and you talk mad show her the mess look at her look at the mess and then say no bad dog . take two fingers put together and hold her mouth and give her one swat right at the point where her nose starts.
then you clean it all up and seem angry until its all cleaned up
the smell is gone . then that is it now you take her outside or away from that area and play with her and say good dog .
most often it only takes a few times to solve this .
if this is a puppy then do all this stuff but in addition if she poo's in the house take that and the dog outside and put that in the spot you want her to go.
then every time you see her go outside you praise her.
and just repeat all this until its gone.
if it does not seem to work most likely it is because you have not managed to change or get rid of the smell so try some other cleaner and always make sure she does not lick that .
oh one more thing to all dog owners .
SWIPPER WET JET IS VERY DANGEROUS TO PETS.
DO NOT USE THIS IF YOU HAVE A PET IN THE HOUSE.

Answer 3

Other people have said this, but I agree....

A beagle outside ALL day is not happy. He needs to be inside with his pack--you and your family.

Get him checked for a urinary tract infection, then get a crate for your room. Do you really want to clean up urine every morning in the bathroom? He needs housetraining. Crates can be really cheap in the smaller sizes at garage sales, want ads, craigslist, ask around--you might even be able to just borrow one.

No water for him 2 hours before bedtime. Put him in it at night with nothing to soak up uncomfortable urine. Make sure the crate is small enough that he can't pee in one end and sleep in the other, but big enough that he can stand up and turn around. Give him something yummy to chew...like a kong stuffed with yogurt/dog food. Ignore him while he cries and shrieks for a few days. Wear earplugs if you have to. First thing in the morning let the dog outside IMMEDIATELY and then when he goes....PRAISE PRAISE PRAISE. I mean a happy, excited, sounding like a fool kind of voice. Give him time with this. He's not seeing the house as his home.

Clean up all urine stains with an enzyme cleaner, or combination of white vinegar and water to get rid of the smell.

Good Luck!

Get a crate and start learning how to crate train her. Feed her at least a few hours before you are going to bed, so she can go out a few times before being expected to stay in for the night. And, age has alot to do with it. A 2 month old dog, typically can hold it for 2 hours.. increases with age. Although with adults you dont want to go over 8/6 hours generally. IF this dog is not used to being in, or crate trained it doesn't understand why it can't /shouldn't just go anywhere. If started young with crate training, a dog has a natural instinct to NOT go in it's immediate area. But you must be religious with taking it out to eliminate. If it has to go, and goes it it's crate, it's more work to them teach it not to. It's also a bit harder if the dog has been outside previously. The worst thing to do it to crate it or have it in a similiar small area (say a bathroom) and let it get the idea of going there ..it gets really hard to go backwards from there. But, start with a smaller area, like a crate..and it should hold it to go outside rather than messing up it's immediate area. Eventually, that can progress to larger areas of the house. but may take awhile to get to the next step. I have a puppy now that it will take a long time to get past holding it in the crate, because his previous owner hardly ever took him outside and he's lost the natural instinct to want to eliminate further away from himself. Good luck.

Answer 5

So am I reading correctly that she's outside all day and only lives inside at night? Living outside I'm sure is not helping matters with house breaking. If they are allowed to go anywhere they want outside then she probably feels she can go anywhere inside. Think of it from the dogs perspective, it is probably very confusing. You have to train her or it's not going to work, and keeping her outside all day except for night time isn't going to be the way to do it. Reaseach housebreaking (maybe so people on here will give some tips) or talk to a trainer. I really don't feel she's going to learn anything if things stay the way they are.

Answer 6

Dogs become housetrained because they see the house as "their" territory, and like humans, dogs don't want to defile their home. Keeping your dog outside all day has not established the house as her home. If you aren't interested to making plans for her to become a mostly inside dog, you'll want to find her a home that has the time to do this, otherwise she'll never truly become "housetrained". If you have the time and the willpower, first take her to the vet to make sure she's healthy. Next, keep her inside most of the time, but do allow her to go outside several times a day. At night, if you can't crate her, find a puppy gate or some other method to keep her in as small of an area as possible. If she knows she has to sleep near the urine, she'll hold it as long as possible.

Answer 7

hi the crait might be the best method to start w/. first stop all food, and water at 6 p.m. take dog out atleast every hour. at bed time place in crait on pad so if dog has to go it will be on pad. do this a few nights. the last night keep the dirty pad. the next night leave crait open with pad next to it hopefuly dog will use pad. every other night move pad closer to the door, and eventualy out side

Answer 8

well before you go to sleep, take her out and if she goes outside, pet her and say good girl. and let her know shes good for going outside. dont let her drink/eat anything late in the evening.
feed her in the mornings. or you could keep her in the bathroom all night long with nothing but newspaper, or towels on the floor

Answer 9

I wouldn't put a towel down for her to go on. Try putting down some newspapers. I highly doubt that she will learn to go on them immediately, it may take a few days. If you see her starting to go on the floor direct her to the newspapers. Good luck and it is kind of you to bring her in at nights.

Answer 10

first off i have noticed that with my own beagle that his urine smells horrible. if you do not get it cleaned up and then you spill something on your carpet again it will bring the smell back, so try to clean it up right away.
i had to train my puppy to walk and sit in front of the door by showing him that after he eats or drinks or wakes up in my room that he goes to the door to go out. just make sure that you take her on a leash or let her walk to the door. if you pick her up and move her she is not going to understand what is going on she is just going to see that she has moved.
rubbing her nose in it and telling her no is not going to work unless you catch her in the act. if you catch her in the act very firmly correct her. you dont need to rub her nose in it just make sure she sees what she is doing is wrong.
I am not sure about the pepper thing i think that is just for cats, and i am not sure you really want pepper all over you floor. remember that dogs are puppies until they are about two years old, and when they are young they need to be trained. be patient, stopping her from peeing is not going to happen over night.

found this on a website:
When you are potty training your puppy, be sure to give him lots of time to do his “job.” Then, reward him with praise. This means you pup will need to be taken outside every hour or two throughout the day and when he “needs” to go out during the night. If you aren’t inclined to do this, a puppy is not for you.

Take your puppy out at key times. These are after he wakes up, after he eats and at the end of a play period. These are the most likely times for him to eliminate, and is the reason he should be on a feeding schedule. When puppies eat, they have to “go.”


god luck to you and remeber to be patient
Oh i just remebered... my trainer told me that if you dont want a dog to go to the bathroom in certain areas to spread their food accross the area you dont want them to go to the bathroom...they dont go to the bathroom where they eat!! it works, i spread my beagles food in an area in the grass (where my nephews play) and not a single yellow spot or pile in the last month!!! try it if you can stang letting her eat in your room!!!

Answer 11

Walmart sells puppy pads that are urine sented. We cannot smell them but the dog can and will use the pad to try and dominate her domain back. You can also rub her nose in it and show her where you want her to go. Either way, Good luck!
