      How would I puppy train a 10 week old puppy where their environment is in an apartment on the 3rd floor, so it’s hard to get them outside when they start sniffing

    I started with pads. But then I just watched the puppy. Everytime I saw her sniffing around on the floor, I scooped her up and brought her outside. As soon as she peed or pooped, I praised her and rewarded her with a treat. After a week, no more accidents.

      @@meena.dwdn1 if you have carpets, get a special carpet cleaner for pet messes that kills the enzymes. Otherwise, your dog will continue to go on the carpet. I bought one called Bubba's commercial pet cleaner. It works great. Wash your carpet first with it, then closely watch her. As soon as she starts sniffing around, scoop her up and bring her outside. As soon as she pees, just call her by name and say, "Good girl!" And hand her a treat. Repeat when she poops. If she poops on the floor, pick it up and just bring it outside on the grass. She'll smell the poop on the grass and get a signal of where she is supposed to go. I have a fenced in yard, so she is now free to come in or out as she pleases.

    Helped, if you’re at the 8ish weeks mark, hang in there and stay at it ! Then come back to refresh yourself, seemed to really help !

    The best piece of wisdom I’ve learned watching all these videos as a new puppy owner, is that if they have an accident, it’s my fault. The puppy is doing what it’s supposed to do. He’s a baby, he’s got a small bladder, he gotta go lol if he has an accident, it’s bc I either wasn’t watching close enough or I wasn’t fast enough. He’s doing great tho, thanks to all these tips I’m learning!

As far as crate training I used to put her in there with a treat and 3 years later I still praise her when she goes in so it's become a pleasant and rewarding experience for her.

Today I realized that when i come from upstairs she get really excited and after q little while she pees again. I figured that’s a new sign.

He is almost potty trained outside; however, the yard in the back yard (fenced area) is in such poor condition for a puppy that puts everything in his mouth (from sticks, limbs, large areas of grassless ground because of trees...and now ants. :( ) A large and nice piece of fesque turf grass was purchased and placed on the back deck. Do you believe it'll be easy to train him to go on the turf grass (which was the reason for the purchase)? And if so, do you have any tricks/ideas? - Thank you again so much in advance. :)

The issue is, I believe her previous owner had her go to the bathroom inside her whole life, now when she is outside she holds it even if she needs to go, I’ve even spent 2 hours with her outside when I knew she had to go and she whined to go back inside to poo. :(

    The only issue I ever had with house training is that when I first got my puppy is was fall/winter, and the particular week that I got him it was very cold and rainy outside, so he didn’t want to go outside at all, and he was only 4 pounds so we didn’t want him to freeze or anything. He was so tiny even extra small dog coats or sweaters were too big on him. Once the weather became a bit nicer the next week, he learned to do his business outside extremely quickly. Being that he was tiny, he constantly got into things and under things, so someone had to be watching him at all times, so we would put him in a pack’n’play for short times(like 10 min max) when we had to do things. He didn’t like that. He would pee in the pack’n’play because he knew we had to take him out to clean it. We didn’t use the pack’n’play for very long lol. The only issue we have now is that he will pee or poop inside when he is mad at us. We will take away a toy he really likes because he has chewed it into pieces and we don’t want him swallowing them, and then he will pee because we took it away lmao.

Him trying to eat leaves, flowers, bugs, etc. are bad enough, but here in FL we have a gazillion little lizards everywhere and he wants to chase every one of them. 🤣🤣🤣

      @its.maya.h 4 роки тому +66

      Maybe take a pad and put it in a certain spot outside??? It’s a lot of work but since she only pees on pads rn that could help introduce her to peeing outside and that it’s okay. And then after awhile maybe take away the pads and lead her to the same spot outside and see what she does. Just a suggestion :)

First, my puppy alerts me to go outside all the time now, even when he doesn’t have to go. What do I do? Second, now that he’s trained for outdoors how do I start training on the puppy pads indoors?

    • @roxanneduplooy883

      It could be that you have allowed mixed associations with going outside to potty, for instance going to potty and then have playtime outside immediately after. I saw a video where they said it's very important to keep trips outside using your potty keywords to only that purpose and then having outside playtime a completely seperate occasions /adventure for your puppy :)

    After a month of working on potty training my corgi puppy I feel defeated. No matter what I do she’ll pee whenever she feels like it. Especially at night in her crate. Last night I took her out every hour or two and still when I got up there was pee in the crate . For a while she used to be pretty good about holding it. And now it’s just like she doesn’t care. She’s 3 months old. It’s a frustrating and I’m at a point where I can hardly sleep. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong :(. I’m trying to be a good dog mom but she doesn’t make any effort to work with me when she’s in the crate. She’s pretty much only in her crate from 11pm to 5am or so with a potty break at like 2am Now she’ll just sit and cry. Even though she’s been able to be pretty good through the night before. Now whenever she goes in the crate she’ll immediately start to cry. I just want to sleep. I’ve never ever had a dog be like this. And I know she’s just a baby. She’s just 3 months old. But I can’t watch and play with her constantly. I need time to do work or to relax. Im at my wits end.

    My puppy is almost 5 months old, I got him four days ago and am working on potty training. He came already knowing the crate, a bit shy but is blossoming without the other dogs he was with. He came from a kennel in Mexico and hasn't had much human interaction and I am working on turning that around because he is a beautiful soul, he is really a great puppy. He has so far only had 2 accidents in the house. 1 because I didn't see if he needed to potty before bringing him inside my house the first day and 2 because I was trying to get my son dressed and didn't move fast enough when he decided he needed to potty. But so far he is doing rather well, perhaps it is due to his age but im not sure. We do have potty pads out where he peed (after cleaning it of course) just in case but he does whine when he's looking for a spot so I know and have learned his cues before he does his urgent whines.

    Thanks for these helpful videos. My puppy will be 10 weeks old tomorrow, so we've just been working on potty training since I brought her home, two weeks ago. Our weather (IL) just went from unseasonably warm to cold and windy, and I'm dreading that we may have some snow in a couple days. She was doing pretty good when it was nice outside, but has started running away from me when I pick her up for "outside" now because she hates the cold. I'm guessing there aren't any miraculous cures for this? I've put a pee pad area in my garage, thinking that maybe that can be a secondary "outside" for really bad days? I've taken her out there for practice and she's really just more curious about the garage than any interest in peeing there. I'm not sure if there is any advice you can give or if I'm just here to vent, LOL! But in any case, thanks!

I have a kennel for her also...trained her to go in and to wait until I say ok when I open the door. I know she is very smart I taught her to sit, lay down and even shake paw all in about 20 min..she loves her treats. I know they can't hold their bladders at that age but I watch her like a hawk. I take her outside she pees twice and poops then comes in and eats with me standing there she takes one step back and pees again that fast. I mostly have the peeing problem, she has had very few of the other because I can pretty much know when she needs to do that but, I just can't seem to get a grip on her peeing all the time. I don't get mad at her but I am just frustrated at myself that I can't seem to find a way to stop all of these accidents.

      Ours did the same in the beginning. Since this comment is 4 months old, it has probably resolved itself, but I wanted to add that the puppy probably didn't feel safe/comfortable enough outside. And when you come back inside, he still had to go really bad and couldn't hold it any longer, plus feeling more comfortable. (So staying out longer might or might not help.)

    No luck on forums so I’ll try here I have tried and followed all your videos on potty training stay consistent daily always reward for going outside follow the same routine always use positive tone and words I work from home so never miss a beat stay extremely consistent we r 2 months in with zero success of him asking to go outside if he’s not in the crate he will go whenever he wants wherever he wants right in front us. He’s a 6 month old chihuahua any chance this is normal I see smaller dogs can take longer especially chi but I’m seeing so many comments says weeks or less and I’m like man what the heck :(

      Hi there, LAZERLINE C! That can be frustrating. A couple of quick points.
      No need to reward your dog for going. The relief is reward enough. Simple praise will work.
      For smaller breed dogs you’ll need to be a little more proactive about taking them out. More frequent trips now will pay off later down the line.
      Don’t ever believe “your dog can be potty trained in X time”. It’s entirely dependent on the dog and potty training takes as long as it takes. Some dogs have accidents weeks into the process. You need to make decisions based on your dog’s current understanding. Accidents happen. And they’re actually an important part of the learning process. As long as you catch them in the act. Here’s a video that talks specifically about marking the error. It is going to be an important part of your training. How To Stop Your Puppy From Peeing Indoors

      Most importantly, keep at it. It might not be easy, but you’re going to need to be a great “supervisor” when your puppy is out of their crate. You’ll get there!

      @@McCannDogs Wow wasn't expecting a reply especially so fast really appreciate your help :) Lol I have never let him out of my sight all his accidents are directly in front of us. He is not allowed to free roam into any room without us. He just chooses not to ask to go outside. Guess we will just keep following the training videos advice thanks so much for your help and videos.

    Hello, been watching your video as i have a 8-9week old puppy coming. Just wondering should i keep the toilet training outdoor or in a located toilet? As during night time, we got to head down to level 1 for outdoor training. Or i can have 2 Alocated toilet for night time potty train?

      It's best to be consistent. Pick one that works best and stick with it, otherwise the puppy will only be more confused.

    It crazy how pretty obvious my puppy has been telling me he has to go this whole time. Now that I know his signs (lowered ears, sniffing in circles) it may as well be a neon sign in the shape of a toilet. If anything I had to be trained on understanding as well as potty and crate training the pup

    I have a 4 month old GSD puppy. He used to use pee pads but now just rips them up. He just looks at me and pees or poops. He will not go on our balcony or outside he just goes nuts with sniffing and running around and doesn’t focus or really stay still. He will not go in his crate either. Any help would be appreciated! As my trainer seems like other stuff is more important then this

    Thanks for the very informative video. I do have a question .... is it bad to train your puppy to use a pad and to go outside as well. I feel bad when I don't make it home right away or on time and I want the puppy to have an option if I am making them hold it too long. What do you think? Thanks in advance Ken.

      GOOD QUESTION! I am currently doing both and he will do both. Don't get me wrong, I'm still working on the odd accident here and there however..... what I can say is with my last pup, I was in an apartment and he came to me in the dead of winter and so we were exclusively pee pads and when spring time rolled around, he just did NOT at all associate outdoors, walks, parks, any kind of grass/pavement/dirt you name it! He never did and still NEVER has gone outside :O that may be an extreme case.... or I could be missing something, I realize it's usually on the owner haha but.. since I don't have the answer to your question, I thought you could take some comfort in this. I sure did hahaha!
