pomeranians Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 Ok, Conner's problem with coming is cured-he stays on a chain while hes outside. But now.... I have a different problem. The little guy still isn't housebroken! He pees on the floor at least once a day, and since he doesn't whine at the door, I never know when he needs to go out. I've gotten advice that using a bell is a good idea, but Conner is the type of dog that takes advantage of things, I teach him to ring a bell, thats all you'll ever hear. So, are there any other ways to housebreak him? Anyone ever had this problem before? Quote
Lucky Chaos Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 Do you take him out to make sure he goes every couple hours? Is he going in between times you take him out? Being young he needs to be on a potty schudule. Quote
pomeranians Posted May 16, 2005 Author Posted May 16, 2005 No, I never know when he needs to go out. My mom & dad also take him out, so I have no clue when he has gone out, or when he needs to go out. :-? Quote
DogPaddle Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 You can check out this link: http://www.dogomania.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10960&sid=42963f66344f69d30d7b7968066cd8b4 You could focus on a thorough cleaning with a product like Nature's Miracle to get rid of smells only he can smell. Never let him out of a responsible persons sight - the second he goes to make a mistake - snatch him up take him outside and let him finish. If someone can't be with him crate him in a crate that is only big enough for him to stand and lie down in. Maybe put him on a schedule. See the link for suggestions on ensuring he needs to go when you put him out. Quote
JackieMaya Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 I agree, he needs to be taken out on a regular schedule for potty breaks. Maybe have a piece of paper by the door so every time he's taken out, it's written down, so that everyone knows when he was out last. Quote
