how can i house train my puppy of 7 months!!?

Answer 1

Be consistant. Take her out frequently, like every two hours or so. It's good to assosate a word with going, so when she starts to go say something like, "Go Potty! Good girl (or boy)!" Also restrict your puppy to only certain areas of the house, like the kitchen, or have her on a leash while in the house so that you don't lose sight of her. If she goes in the house and you catch her in the act, then say "No" and put her outside and praise the puppy there. If it goes in the house and you didn't catch her in the act or immideatly (like, two seconds) after, then don't scold, they won't get it.

Good luck!

Answer 2

I have had 4 puppys in my life time and potty trained everyone by myself. First off as soon as your puppy wakes from a nap take him outside to potty. This can take a little time to about 10 min.
Then about every 3 to 4 hours take your puppy out to potty,it will mostly pee. And at night if you wake up take the puppy out even if it is sleeping. As soon as you get up take the puppy out. Always tell it imn a loving voide good boy/girl and pet it and even give it a little hug if you want. And in 3 to 5 days your puppy will be potty train. I have never had a problem training a puppy,oh and if you train it to sit,stay and so on do not give it treats just love and in nice voice how good it is for doing the trick. You will find the puppy will learn very fast.

Every time it does something inside, pick it up, put its nose near it (so it can smell what it has done- seeing it is not effective). Say "Bad dog" in a loud, deep voice and put it straight outside for 10-20 mins. It takes time but will work in the end, and is much cheaper than classes. I trained my puppy to do this from 8 weeks, he's now 9 months and asks to go out.
Also make sure you put it out immediatly after waking and eating.

Its just like potty training a baby;
- You restrict their access to your carpets to prevent accidents, and
- You show them where you want them to go and reward them for doing it.

Would you rub a babies nose in it? Its ridiculous.
Make a dog toilet in your back garden, mark it with planks or bricks. Put your pup on the lead and take him there first thing in the morning, last thing at night and on the hour every hour throught the day. Wait with him at the spot and reward him when he goes.
After a few days you'll get to know his pattern of when he needs to go; and he'll 'click' and get the message that this is the spot he is to use.
When that happens you can slowly cut down the frequency to every two hours, then when he needs to.
And in between keep him restricted to the kitchen with a stairgate across the doorand a comfy bed. Give him plenty of chews and walks.
It shouldn't take long, two weeks if you're consistant; although some breeds take a while to get the message.

patients and repitition... the puppy usually does it a night time right. Don't feed them after 8:00 and make them go to the bathroom outside before bed and you will not have that problem. Also you can try the puppy pad method. They do work well but they are still messy. put a down a blanket or big material under it to make sure she doesn't go anywhere else.

Answer 6

Wow... you're like me. My puppy pees in her crate. We are thinking of taking her to a puppy potty training class at Petsmart. You should do the same.

Answer 7

We tend to think of dog training as a series of steps for teaching particular behaviors. To teach a dog to stay in a particular position, you reward her as she remains in place for gradually longer times, at gradually greater distances, with gradually increasing degrees of distraction.

Now, this is fine, training does involve teaching dogs specific behaviors with a step-by-step approach. This week, though, I’m going to discuss three mental habits that will not only enable you train more effectively but also make life pleasant for both you and your dog.

Answer 8

A bit late, but absolutely possible !!!!! We did it at 5 months with our rescue dog. You take the dog out at regular intervals and wait for it to relieve its self, then you click and treat and praise ( click and treat is a small container similar to a sweetener dispenser, except with a dog treat in it). the dog gets used to the sound and to the treat/praise. once the association is made by the dog he/she will go and relieve him/herself on command, as ours does. Good luck, just persevere.

Answer 9

well you have to catch in the act for this but you have to catch it in the act and say no really loud once they start going then take them outside and say you go out here. You will have to take him/her out as often as you can try every hour or less because there bladder is small but they will learn adventually
