Do you have an older puppy or dog still not totally house trained? You are not alone! Check out our video on that very topic which packed full of tips to help https://youtu.be/pf6_E1TRYxU
What if you work 8 or 9 hours
We lost our almost 15 year old Chocolate Lab Hunter about 1.5 months ago. Hunter was THE BEST boy, and we miss him so much.
We just adopted Sully, our 14 week old Champagne/Cinnamon lab a few days ago.
He is having mostly pee accidents in the house though I try as I might take him out often. I noticed he has been peeing in spots Hunter always loved to lie down. Could this possibly be a residual response, marking on Hunter's spaces?
Hunter never had any inside accidents in our new house.
I found two stray dogs I took the men because they were abandoned on my street. For example a few months ago, a monster through five puppies away in a field across the street from my house. So when I found these two dogs and there was no owners around. The female was actually pregnant and weeks away from giving birth. I helped her give birth to the puppies and even gave one of them CPR. These were shepskies what's their half German shepherd and half husky some of them look like huskies and some of them look like a mix between the two with beautiful blue or blue and brown eyes! They are adorable. It took me forever to find homes for the puppies because I was very picky on who I chose this year in particular has been hard because my wife and I were in a car accident on our way to a wedding and both of our cars were totaled and the insurance company refused to pay out anything. So it left us with a whole lot of debt. And a very bad situation. So taking on 12 extra dogs was not something that we anticipated. Plus neither one of us are rich and I'm partially disabled due to a 30 ft fall 10 years ago where I broke my spine . But, we did the best we could and not only took care of the dogs we made sure that they had proper vitamins and everything that they needed to be as healthy as possible. We found owners for seven of the dogs and we still have three. Our daughter who is 18 and went in the Army recently had one of the dogs but because she can't keep her dog on base she brought it back home. So now we have three of the puppies that are 4 months old. Two of them are pretty good at using training pads. Are daughters puppy is doing the best he can and his learning because he came from using a yard already that was fenced in. We don't have a fenced in yard because we have two acres of land that we live on and it's just not in our budget right now to put up a fence. So we have to physically walk them on leashes so they don't run away. Now with all that said, my main issue is when I first wake up I have to pee and I'm on the second floor and being partially disabled it takes me about 5 minutes to get it together to get downstairs to get the dogs on the leash to get them outside. They pee as soon as I pee and when we wake up. And with them doing that it doesn't allow me to get them out of the door and get them outside I don't know what else to do at this point.
Our 11 weeks is with us since 2 weeks now ,we going out but never on leash should i change and put his leash on from now?
I used to think crates were cruel confinement for puppies, but I was astonished at it seems the opposite to them. I think the relative scale puppies experience in crates comforts them.
I keep watching videos and reading comments that say to let your dog/puppy outside to potty every 2-3 hours. Does anyone work a full time job that owns a dog/puppy? How do you let a dog out every 2-3 hours when you work an 8 hour job?
I love this 😮
Some dogs don't like dog leash….
Great tips, Susan! The H-O-T method makes so much sense for training. Can't wait to start applying these!
5:35 is the best starting point for me…
i live in a 3 story condo and most of the time, the activity in the house is a family room at the basement level. There is no quick way to get outside without negotiating a flight of stairs. The quickest route is up the basement stairs and then through the garage to the yard. My concern with using the garage is the time it takes and noise to open the garage door snd its noisy. Would pee pads ever be an option for them in the play pen in the basement?
We just got 3 16months old puppies, I know, crazy, but they’re brothers. We’re following your rules, they sleep in the same pen, and no problems so far. We take them out every 3 to 4 hours in our yard and they’re doing well. Could use more advise on training 3 of them.
Thank you!!
My puppy will not walk on a leash! He's 5 months old now. And I'm not going to keep dragging him around! I have a fenced in yards and I let him go out on his own.
Great tips but what if you already have dogs?
Peanut is a seven year old Chihuahua, and Skylar (Skye), is a 5 year old Chihuahua. They do have a cage. They already peed up the living room carpet. I have 48 inch cage. I'm not good at manipulation of my environment. I've trained dogs for years. For them, I'm looking for help. Peanut when she is doing well at going outside, she does like a potty dance pats all four paws to the floor like a march. She paw points or comes gets me. I used the cage to reinforce her training and it works but after a long time she goes back to peeing inside. Skye don't do the potty dance or paw point. She circles at the back door, when she's good about it. When they aren't, they have accidents of both kinds. They are worried they'll be yelled at or the GDS will bite them. Princess is the GDS. She is well potty trained and she's not attacking them over a leash.
I just received a puppy shih Tzu, she now is 31/2 months old. She goes to door and wines and we go out, but she goes potty seems like every 15 minutes or less. Never had a puppy go so often. What do I do?

Hi everyone! I really need help with my puppy. He’s 3 months old and he’s live to eat his poop. I do every step on this video and he also poop at the crate and eat it. I don’t know what to do 😮I’m desperate 😢please help 😢
My puppy came with bad constipation. We are on day 2. I am more concerned with curing that, than toilet training at the moment.
Nobody is in our home from 8am to 3pm where do I put puppy? X pen?
Do I wake up every hr to take to per for 1 week🤔
Great video, Susan. I have the way I have watched it twice already.
Issue:
I get up between 2 and 3 a.m. and have always done so in my adult years.
When I was potty training my dearly departed 11-year-old Boxer, I would take her out and tell her to go piddle. She would squat, go, and be done. Then, we would go back to bed.
Should I start that with the new puppy?
I'm unsure how much potty training the breeder will have done with the new puppy.
My girl, Camo, came pretty much potty trained, and her last accident was at😅 6 months old, and it was because I didn't hear her bark.
SO, my question is:
Should I wake up my new puppy (Charlie) to go potty when I get up in the middle of the night?
I get a puppy tomorrow and I'm scared shitless ..
I take my dog out for one hour and don’t do anything when we’re come back home that’s when he do it.
Can we take the puppy outside into the lawn before all vaccinations are completed
I am currently fostering an American Bulldog American Pitbull mix. He is around 4 years old. Never side and always heat outside in a kennel. I needed a refreshment course. I ve always had puppies and housebreaking was a breeze. This guy is being a challenge. This was very helpful. A big thank you.
Good advice, thank you.
Well this puppy drops urine!! Just I’m here playing , squat, walking , squat… ugh
I am getting a new puppy next week for the first time in years so I need the refresher. Seems like not much has changed lol.
The best!!!
Very practical and to the point! Thank you
Blah, blah, blah, blah
So what do you mean by "Potty Train Your Puppy in a Week", you only have to do these things during a week? Or is it just a clickbait title?
Crates are pure poison. Sure some people use them sensibly, but I can assure you the dumb masses lock their dog in a small crate for up to 8 hours. And the sad thing is nobody used to do this until you yanks came along and started promoting these damn crates.
The editing is hilarious hahaha. I’ll leave an update if these tips work or not!
Where I come from crates aren’t a big thing which I understand because In the USA y’all’s don’t have walls around your gardens
Pee within 3 minutes .. 🙄
My dog will spend an hour being distracted. She will eat a rock, grass, stick, bark at neighbors, try to chase something. She just won’t go. And I ignore her like you say.
I take her in and put her in her play pen, she’ll pee and poo in it. I feel like the only way is to lock her up like a convict in her crate. I feel bad! But I spend everyday cleaning carpets and floors. I’m exhausted!
taking a dog outside every hour is completely impractical when someone works full time!
Very good video. Thanks. I got a fake grass pee patch, but looking for real grass near exit door for indoor.
While he is still a puppy (3 to 4 months) and slowly move that one outside too but once he knows how to signal someone to go out.
I got lot of space inside the house where I can put a fake or real grass patch and one outside etc (big backyard) – question is: Should I have both indoor and outdoor option for him to do this at anytime he want? if I work in office away from home for 8 hours, and if I only choose outside then he don't know what to do and do pee indoor on tiles. Should I ? or provide both option.
He is a small dog – Mini Cavoodle so he will be mostly living indoor – my first dog so I am not sure if it is OK to leave him outdoor under shed, in secure area with long leash on for 8 hours? like a large play area that is safe and on leash so he don't run away by mistake. Plus I have secure fencing so nothing to worry but still I will do a wall hook and a small patch for him to do business and chill out bed during day. With Auto kibble feeder with right portion – all of this is only when I am away from home 3 days a week.
Would this work? And what about when I am home, still keep him outside as regular habit and bring him indoor when I want to play with him as a quality time? Or put a door on the security fence and let him in and out whenever he want? I see there are doors which can sense and open only for registered microchip number so it could be a good long term idea. do you think this is way to go? This is to avoid us waking up at 6:30 am on Saturday and Sunday morning when we had a big night – movie, outing on concert etc. Please advise.
My puppy is already fast trained on fake grass area indoor, just in 2 days – very smart obedient dog and I am spending good time training him too. as I do WFH it helps.
Oh btw, sorry for too long question.
My dog wants me to go with him. Then she’ll go.
