Thank you so much for posting all of your video's I breed Golden Retrievers and I'm now getting a cocker spaniel these have helped many new puppy owners and now I'm going to use them again!
my dog is about 2 moths old and he waits till we are asleep and craps the floor. we are taking him out more than several times daily. he also constantly licks the ground. is the help for this?
I watched a video, that said not to teach your dog to ring a bell when it needs to go to the toilet, because when it is older and doesn't need to go to the toilet as much, it will still ring the bell because it means that somebody will come and take it outside. I seem to be stuck in the middle now to whether it's a good idea or not. PLEASE respond as soon a possible.
i just got my white gsd 5 days ago, she was neglected and is between 4-6 months, she is/was very nervous and skittish and would always pee indoors. I have been rubbing her belly while outside and try lifting her rear up and she goes pee, is it ok to do this? she is getting a lot more comfortable as she now lets me rub her belly
I've had a Toy Fox Terrier for a little over a year. She will do #1 outside but will not do #2. She is crated at night and while Im at work (9hrs) and each morning/day I go to let her out she has done her business. Can a toy breed hold it 9 hours. Im very frustrated, I dont want to have to clean a dirty cage every morning and every evening, but she is a rescue and I would like to work with her before giving her up (which is where it looks like it headed) PLEASE HELP! Thx
I HAVE A BISHON FRISE I DOG SIT IN MY HOME EVERY NOW AND THEN. ITS MY MOTHER-IN-LAWS SHES 83 AND SHE USES THE PADS AT HER PLACE AND WE DO BRING THE PADS HERE WHEN I DOG SIT HIM BUT HE DONT USE THEM HE GOES ON MY CARPET AND THE DOG IS 4 MONTHES OLD AND DOESNT GO OUTSIDE MOTHER IN LAW DONT WANT THAT CAUSE SHE CANT GET OUT TO TAKE HIM TO DO HIS BUSINESS OUTSIDE THATS WHY SHE HAS THE PADS. PLEASE HELP ME ON WHAT TO DO. THANK YOU
i have 3 dogs the two i have are house trained but the 3rd whos 1 we only had 2 an half months ago he stopped peeing an pooing in the day time now but wont hold it at night any tips plz xxmel
Good video. Good guy. I saw most of Eric's videos and I find them to be very helpfull. Thank you Eric.
PROBLEM HERE : I am trying to house train my 9 week old pup. This is turning to be a very un-pleasant experience. I need help ! What I mean by house training is that my goal is to have my dog do his thing in ONE specific area in the house, with those pee-pee pads. I have even tried "Hunter's Pet trainer spray". No luck here. HELP is very much welcome. Thanks.
@alofano My experience with those pads has been unfavorable. My dogs would always just shred them. Ive had 3 dogs and was never successful with using them!
Aloha and thanks for the great video. So, I just adopted a really sweet Whippet from the humane society. He is fun and nice but... I walk and walk and he will NOT use the outdoors. As a matter of fact I noticed that when we get close to home he starts pulling to get home, once at home if I turn he will go right there in the house. Why would he not use the outdoors and just wait until we get back home?? I am about to go crrrrazzzy. Does anyone have any tips?
How do I teach my dog to ring a bell when he has to go??? I want to get a puppy soon and i want to know how to teach him to go to the bathroom outside properly.
wen my dog messes up in the house, i jus push his nose into it and then take him out... my friend suggested i do that cuz thats how he trained his pup wich is perfectly fine
hey eric i have one question. how can i teach my dog to touch the bell when it needs to go pee or poo outside? can you reply ASAP plz or make a video? thx
Excellent video. My dog is no longer a puppy and due to past training mistakes, he is afraid to go in front of us, as you mentioned. He doesn't like to be watched and won't pee/poo in public. How do I correct this now?
Put a bell on your door to the outside, and take them to it before you take them out. Take their paw at ding the bell as your taking them outside. They will learn to associate the sound with going out. (make sure its low enough for them to reach)
I have a chi and I love him and everything but this seems to be the hardest thing for him to understand and I pass frustrated. I bought him pads to go on and he urinates on them faithfully! but he will not poop on it. I talk to the vet about this and I was told that it was normal and they might not in the same place. Well, he needs to go in the same place. We are renting and he cant continue to go just anywhere on the carpet he pleases.
Eric, I thought you said that you shouldn't use the term "Hurry Up" because it's associated with daily life? "Hurry up, you're going to miss the bus!" and etc?
Thanks for all the great tips. I am getting an Australian Cattle dog this Saturday and your videos are very helpful. I appreciate it. I noticed at the end of one of you videos you gave a number to call and it was the same area code as mine and then just read you were from Massachusetts. I live on Cape Cod (Marstons Mills), are you close by?
Thank you so much for the video. I was doing a lot of what you said, but I think I'll try a different cleaner. Gotta find out if Fantastik has ammonia in it. I have to admit, I'm getting really frustrated. I can't remember my first dog being this hard. I'm starting to feel like she's stupid. And I don't want to feel that way. She's great in her crate, goes outside, but also goes inside.
This all sounds good I have tried all this, but this 5 month old Chug just dont understand, for one my boy friend has already scared her with her potting on the rug,,we have paper out but she wont use it, I take her out with my other 1 year old Pom about every hour or two she will go outside but still do it in the house..
i had the same problem with my beagle and then my vet said I was overthinking it. All the dog needs to do is do he business outside for about a week and then they will wait to go outside, because thats where he goes. Whatever it takes just make sure he goes outside. He cannot be allowed to be free in the house behaving like that. 30 minutes of play with you 2 hours in the kennel, outside. Then repeat. Seems cruel but after a week it will potty train your dog. Creatures of habit.
For the first week or so, bring you dog out a few times a day or whenever you see that they're sniffing around in the house. Sniffing around and cirlcing are cues that they need to go. While they are doing that outside, say your key-word. I use "go pee" or "go potty". Stop saying it when they do it and then when they're done, reward lol. Look at Eric's different vids. He's explained this before.
Hi im going to buy a dog i really NEED TO NO HOW TO NO IF HE IS HURT WILL HE MAKE A NOISE ? OR SOMETHING CAN U PLZZ TELL ME HOW WILL I NO IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH HIM
My dog is 2 years this month, he was fine and housebroken when we got him a month ago. Recently he has been going on the floor out of nowhere. So I tried the part you said about telling them to get busy, and stuff like that, and he hasnt had an accident yet. Thanks so much
Eric - We just got a beautiful, housetrained german shepherd/lab mix - rescued from the pound. She is house trained, but we want her to only "get busy" in our yard in a pen that is about 40 square feet of space. Our yard is all cement, so the floor of the pen floor is basically cement covered with kitty litter. As a mature dog, it seems that she can hold it forever, so waiting for her to go in a chose spot may take several hours. Any advice?
So when your dog messes in the house, it aint proper or necessary to make them smell it and scold them...or maybe even give them a few wake-up pats on the butt???
I am having difficulty housetraining my 7 month old Border Collie. Have had her since she was 11 weeks. I have never experienced such a tough dog to housebreak. My last BC girl was houstrained at 4 months and my male took one week.
This pup just doesn't get it. How do I teach her to cue me to take her out?
