Housetrain my two dogs?

Question

Is chichucha breed is the hardest to housetrain them? I been trying to train them for more than 6 months and they still won't pee or poop on pad or newspaper. I did tell them no and i put them back on pad. It don't really work. I cant take them outside because they are afriad of going outside and afriad of leash but if I keep them in den then they will pee or poop on paper. I can't keep them in den all the time and I feel bad for that. they need to run around the house and stuff but I can't keep them out if they continue this behavior. Beside I live in apartment which it make it harder to go outside all the time. Do you think my dogs will poop in cat litter better than on paper? I need to find a way to house train them, Any advice or idea? Or chichucha is hardest to train than other breed? THey almost one year old, it is too late for them to be housetrain or not?

Answer 1

I have to agree with violetta it is also important for when training a dog to give them freedom and also set limits.

Answer 2

I potty train my dog by looking at the most important hint its showing: when does it wanna go. If ur dog is at the carpet, circling a area nervously and sniffing, that means it wants to go. So u immediently pick it up and leave it on a newspaper. If u keep this up, it'll know where 2 pee by now. And no, when its about 2 yrs old, its 2 old 2 housetrain them.

OK I own one black lab. To train him we first tried pee pad and it did not work whatsoever. Then we had lots of suggestions to try kennel training. What we did was at night they were in the kennel then in the morning they got taken out to do their business. Then again after school/work and then before bed. But first get your dog used to outside. Maybe he is cold. It really does work though now my dog can walk around the house without making accidents and he will whine and pace when he needs to go outside and he is barely over a year. I think that you're dog is still trainable.

You can teach a dog at any stage in their life. What I would recommend is every time they pee somewhere other than on the pee-pads, take a paper towel and wipe it up and then place that scent on one of the puppy pads. Take the dog to the puppy pad (with the scent of the pee) so it knows this is where it needs to go. My dog had a weird thing and would not pee on the cheap puppy pads so I ended up having to get the more expensive ones from PetsMart. Good luck!

Answer 5

let me be honest you are making one very big mistake you are using pads and paper this makes your dogs think its ok to use the house as a washroom!

i ma gonna write a very long article soon im gonna have to save it lol

Routine is the most important aspect of training. From the beginning, feed 4 times per day, at the same times, and put the bowl up in 5 minutes, or when finished.

A puppy will need to go just minutes after eating, so whisk him outside, and stay with him until he 'goes'..Give him lots of praise when he does his job, play a few minutes, and come back in..

If you can spread down a bag of sand, from a garden center, it will give him a good place to go, so you can kind of aim him there, and not just all over your yard..

He should only need to go poop after eating, and perhaps at bedtime..

However, he will need water down at all times, and need to pee frequently..so, outside every other hour for that..and keep a close eye on him..He will need to go during active play, and every time he wakes from a nap..If you watch him, you will see him acting restless, and sniffing the floor, etc when he needs to go..at first, peeing may be just a matter of pausing, and uh-oh, there it is..He won't even be aware...So its important to never scold him for peeing...this is what makes traumatized pups that refuse to pee outside, or try to hide it in the house..as they get scolded for it, and it becomes a traumatic event..
Keep the product, Nature's Miracle, on hand, for instant cleaning of pee spots...or ask your pet supply which enzyme cleaner they recommend..

Puppies physiology only allows them to hold pee for about 1 hour per month of age...so expecting any more is unrealistic..a good reason for a playpen or crate at night.. He may hold it through the night, but is likely to need to pee at least once during the night..You can remove the water a couple of hours before bedtime..

By following a routine, and being ever watchful for the first few days, you can have him petty well trained in just a couple of weeks..or less

I house-train all of my pups before they ever leave my home, and I do it an entire litter at a time..it normally takes about 4-5 days, with very few accidents, before they are asking to be let out..
But, if you hang a little bell on the door, or a desk bell on the floor, and show him you are ringing the bell each time you take him out, he is likely to begin ringing the bell when he needs to go..Just be very vigilant, and yet stay relaxed..an accident doesn't mean failure..
Remember, it takes forever to potty train a human baby, and it is so nice that puppies can learn it so much faster, but they are still allowed to be babies, and don't deserve to be stressed about the training...
If you have important areas to keep clean, just keep him away from those areas until he is a bit older..

Pee pads are VERY confusing to a ppupy! You are telling him it is OK to do it in the house, and then expecting him to learn your limits, at a time when he already has so very much to learn..It rarely works.

I recommend using a soft step-in type harness for the walking and leash training, as it is less frightening and stressful..eventually, as trust is developed, you can switch to a collar..but a soft harness takes the fear away from the beginning...Walking stimulates the bowels to move, more so than just putting the dog out..

Answer 6

Dogs go outside. Leash train the spoiled things and stop thinking they are cats that will go in a specified place.

Answer 7

spank him on the bottom, not hard and rub its nose in it (not hard be reasonalbe!) and put it out side, they wwill get the hint, and belive me my dogs are beyond spoiled and they are house trained!
