Answer 1

here is one I responed to just about close to your question, it will help you as well...........GET A CRATE!!!!!! Her pup was crying all the time when out of sight as well as peeing everywhere. A crate is not a bad place and is a must for House training, teaches more than just holding blader. Get rid of the paper your teaching the pup to pee inside. Offer outside if she does not go put back in crate. trust me she will go outside, they have fur. And if need be get a coat for her. Remimber crate must only have enough room to let the pup turn and lay down. Get a crate that is going to large enough for adult size, and use a diverder (some crates come with them) to downsize the crate. Pups reach adult size before they are trust worthy to have free roam.

Here is my reponse to the other pet owners question...
The 2 year old is just another puppy in your dogs eyes, not the MOTHER, she/he is just upset and can not see you, normal.. but can lead to major problems if you react to it. However upon return from downstairs make your pup settle down before touching talking or any playfull reconition to him/her. Never let a crying pup out of the crate uless you know for sure they have to potty. CRYING PUPs ALWAYS get put outside in my world. Cry means I have to potty in my house. But if outside has just been offered prior to going upstairs then Fuss and tell them to settle before letting them be with you. Timing is the key here, as soon as the pup stops crying go right to him and attend Otherwise you have rewarded the cry. It all takes time. The key is always respond the same way each and everytime. Dogs learn faster this way. No means no.

This is what I do when crate training house training young pups.

First a crate is a must!!! If your not able to give 100% hands on with your pup then put him/her in the crate as you would your 2 year old in a playpen. This will keep the pup from peeing on floors or getting into something harmful. Always offer "outside" when taking out of crate. If you work: here is a key for you.....
Take care of pup first... go potty (carry him outside!!!)... take care of baby..... Feed baby.... and feed pup at same time.... pup back out side after eating/watering.... pick up uneaten food and water...until next feeding....(never leave water down when trying to potty train any puppy) put pup in crate with a "knuclebone" knuclebones are ONLY for crate time Never let pup have it outside of crate (no water in crates) and finish taking care of baby. Now get yourself ready. Leave house...........Come home go straight to crate pick pup up SAY NOTHING BUT "OUTSIDE" and not in a baby voice, do not touch or play with pup until potty has taking place!!! THEN you can baby talk love pet and play oh how fun a new pup is!!! Keep up with that the same way every time and you will see many things take place.....Potty training is coming along, crying has stop, and your frustration has ended....altleast with the pup that is!! And understand between you and your pup and what is exspected out of him/her.

One other tip that has never failed me. I put a cow bell on the "potty door" (tie it with a string, have hang low enough for the pup to "hit it" with nose or paw, it works and works fast. Ring it right in front of pups nose each and everytime you offer "outside" and say the word outside!! Also put water outside in a place your happy with. Making the only place the pup can drink from. Pups will learn faster where the water is than where to potty. So by having the water outside the pup will ask to go outside and learn to "hit the bell", and inturn have a chance to potty in the right place. I use the bell because I can hear it no matter where I am in the house, upstairs as well!! I also have 2 story 2800sq home and can hear my bell. Good luck and any other tips I can help with I would be glad to. [e-mail]
