of course it does but you need to make an effort to train it or everything you own will smell like dog pee. why not get the book by evelyn woodhouse or other dog training book and have a go at it. good luck.

At 6 months she should be house trained by now. She shouldn't need to wee on paper or anywhere else in the house if you are taking her out regularly.

I'm guessing that this is the first puppy you've owned. She needs to be trained (and she's just at the right age now) and you need to be taught how to train her.

Please call you local vet and ask about puppy training classes, which will be fun for both you and your puppy. A vet nurse can also give you adviced in the short term about how to begin housetraining, how often you need to walk your dog, etc.

Of course your puppy loves you, but if you don't train her to behave in acceptable ways, you won't get the most out of having her.

Oooh! Your puppy loves you man! She is reaching that curious stage and that is why she is following you around everywhere. She wants to see what you are doing and also she is scared that you might go somewhere without taking her along.

As for the wee situation, it's going to be tough for you and it's going to sound very harsh, but that is the only thing that works(my mom did it with all of our dogs when they were puppies and they stopped doing it). Every time she wees, even if it's just a little splash, you must rub her nose in it. Take her by the back of her head and literally stick her nose in the wee and hold it there for 5 seconds. Pls try it, you will see that it works.

Let me know if there is any progress! ;-)

At six months old she should be getting used to going outside not even using paper anymore my dog is 7 months old and has been completely house trained for months.
U need to start taking her outside every half an hour or so and praising her like mad when she does it outside, when she does it inside simply place her outside, she will soon get the hint, positive reinforcement is they key so always praise her like mad when she does it right.
NEVER rub her nose in it like i have seen suggested, fear and humiliation is not how you train a dog, u want a dog to respect u by being a strong leader not an abusive one, i have had dogs all my life they are always house trained within 6 weeks or so and i have never had to do that.
within a month or so she should just wait until you let her out, a crate is always a good idea while you are toilet training too as they wont mess in their own bed, they are not cruel, dogs are naturally denning animals and find safety and security in crates.
Of course she loves u, she will see you as her pack leader and will follow your commands, dogs like to know their place being pack animals, all u have to do is show her the correct behaviour.

Following you all over would suggest she has doggy love for you .Dogs are very loyal. As for weeing all over I would suggest you start to train her not to do it . They is plenty of tips online and some good books to suggest ways that will help stop this behaviour of weeing all over the house . At 6 months the doggy should really be trained already but it's never too late .

Your puppy loves you very much. Puppies at that age want to be wherever you are!

Paper training is tough. You have to constantly keep showing her the paper everytime she goes. If for some chance she doesn't grasp the concept of newspaper, then companies like PetSmart sell those puppy pads which are scented and draws the puppies to them and they pee on them. Kind of like cat litter does for a kitty.

Try it out, be patient, and love her back!

I read 'the dog listener' realy makes sense. a kind approach to dog training. it's by Jan Fennel, but you could borrow it from the library?

that means she think she owns you.
Ha ha! you are your little dog's *****

Stop treating it like a little person, put it out when it mis behaves, move it waya from you if it whines or jumps up.
take toys from it
feed it sepeerately
always leave the room first

Take it on the grass outside or back garden and when she pees reward her and she will soon associate the back garden with going for a pee.

yes she loves you but you can follow some simply rules to train your puppy not to use your house as a restroom.

1) limit the amount of water your puppy drinks. monitor her water intake. do not leave a bowl of water on the floor until she has learned to control her bladder.
2) buy a crate. Use it for a training tool. NOT a punishment tool. keep your puppy in a safe warm place in her crate when you are gone from the house and overnight; make it homey and safe. it should be big enough for her to move around in. add blankets (and a small bowl of water if you are gone during the day for longer then 4 hours)
3) when you are home keep your puppy with you and limit the rooms she is allowed to roam in - don't let her roam freely throughout the house alone. Use the crate for an hour here or there when you are home so your puppy will learn to accept it as her 'den'. once she becomes more able to control her bladder you can expand her territory and use the crate less and less.
4) Take your puppy outside about 20 minutes after eating or drinking. Praise her with great hugs and talks when she eliminates outside. Be sure to use her name when you do this for positive reinforcement.
5) remember that puppies have a total bladder control of about 4 hours. if you work, you may need to go home at lunchtime and let your puppy out of her crate for a short walk and elimination.
6) Bedtime; give your puppy a drink of water about 20 minutes before bedtime, Take her outside 20 minutes after drinking. be sure to praise her using her name when she eliminates outside. then put her to bed for the night in her crate.
7) Remember to Use the crate as a training tool. do not use a crate as a punishment tool. Always be positive and happy when it is time for your puppy to be crated. Say the command 'Crate' with a hand movement pointing to the crate.
6) Proper crate training can help with the teething stage (chewing) that your puppy will go through. Some dogs have teething stages up to 2 years of age or so, but by that time your young dog should only be crated when you are away from home or bedtime.
7) eventually, you will be able to keep the door of the crate open at night and your young dog will view her crate as her safe den.
8) If your puppy has an accident, scold her but Do NOT use her name when scolding her. Her name should not be associated with negative emotions. say 'No, bad Pup' and pick her up and immediately take her outside - even midstream if you can catch her. then Praise her and use her name when she finishes up outside. If you don't catch her, then show her the spot (by pointing or rubbing some on your finger and letting her smell it; say 'No, Bad Pup!' but don't rub her nose in it - she will associate you forcing her head down with pain and negative emotions. then take her outside and Praise her when she eliminates.
9) Use distilled white vinegar to rub out old urine spots. puppies will return to the same place to urinate because it is a marked territory
10) remember to be loving and patient. your puppy will gain control - remember she wants to please you and she wants to be a good dog. she wants to make you happy.

i have always owned dogs. i have three dogs now, two 10-year old 100 lbs labs and a 30 lbs foundling we found burned and dying in a parking lot a few years back. i have raised pups from 6 weeks old and even retrained our foundling which we think was about 3 or 4 when we picked him up. We crate train all of our dogs and it works great.

For our current brood, i kept the crates in our bedroom and eventually replaced them with large fluffy quilts and dog beds. the dogs prefer to sleep in their beds rather than in ours. they don't have accidents in the house and they don't chew any household items. we have never hit our dogs and have never rubbed our dogs noses in their accidents.

Finally, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, we have never used a crate as a punishment tool, only as a training tool AND we have not kept our dogs crated for convenience sake or for longer than was necessary.

Good luck with your pup!
