I actually find videos like this very discouraging. We take our dog out constantly, and I do mean constantly. We praise them if they happen to potty out there, but often they go out- sniff sniff, spend a very long time doing nothing but watching random things, and then come inside and find a lovely place on the carpet to poop, and pee. We have tried rewarding with treats, praise, crate training, being as boring as possible outside so they focus on pottying instead of roaming (which we have also done), and nothing works. This is not realistic, or helpful advice unfortunately.
I really feel for you. The advice that we sometimes have to put up as content creators is generalized but unable to help people that sometimes are in unique situations. I’d love to personally help you overcome this problem. Perhaps if we had a conversation I could help you come up with a solution. If that’s not a problem for you, you can text me and I’ll do what I can to help you figure this out. 832-734-5189
I am also struggling with this. You’re saying exactly what’s happening to me and my pup. I’d take him outside and wait for him to go for 20 minutes. Nothing. So we go back in and I see him sniffing around again. So I take him out and for another 15 minutes nothing. So I bring him back in and then he decides to pee on the rug. Looking for help on RU-vid and goggle hasn’t been very useful thus far.
Wow, I gave my rotty a light spanking with my slipper for intentionally taking a potty indoors and he never did it again. I also praise him every time he does it outdoors. I guess different strokes for different folks...
I get that! The thing is, it is okay to communicate “no” to a dog when they are doing something inappropriate. BUT… Most people grossly miss the fact that their dog is just confused about where the best place to go really is. If folks would reward their dogs really well when they go in the right place, then saying “no” would work way better.
@@FollowerOfGODBeliverOfJESUS 😂💀 just curious it's been years but wat happened because my long haired Chihuahua is on her way out and this video ain't help at all with anything 😂
So what you trying to say is we just have to take our dogs outside all the time and tell him this is a good place to go which that is what I've been doing for the past 3 years. So why not give us any good news? Any anything new to use?
Here’s the Advice you all need. This is what TO DO. This is what I emailed a new Adopter of one of my dogs. I’ve used this technique on puppies and older dogs that are recently adopted and are insecure and need boundaries: Yes… He needs more boundaries. Bring the crate into kitchen and he should be crate trained all over again. It’s not a bad thing, he just needs to learn where it’s acceptable there to go to the bathroom. I’m assuming he gets kenneled at night. When let out of the crate in the morning he should be lead immediately outside in the yard… bring treats and go out with him. When he goes potty, immediately tell him “Good Boy” and give him the treat. When back inside, since he’s gone potty, give him 30 - 45 minutes maximum free-time. Bribe him back in the crate with a treat (so he knows it’s not punishment) and let him hang out in there. Anytime he’s let out of the crate he needs to go straight outside. Then again, Potty, Good Boy, Treat, Free-Time, Crate. For most dogs I’ve had to house break, I’ve bought cheap hot dogs or some chicken, cut them up in small pieces, keep them in a zip lock bag and when they potty, they get that special “high-value” treat. They very quickly learn that they ONLY get that yummy high-value treat if they potty outside… and they learn quick. Pavlov’s dog lol. As far as where he’s had an accident inside, start placing his water dish there. And/or you feed him in that spot… I’ve even kept the dish he’s eaten at, in that spot. Because they won’t go theoretically where they eat. I’ve never had a dog lift their leg again where I’ve placed that food dish. Don’t feel it’s unusual that a new dog, even if an Adult or older dog, is having accidents at first… the change can sometimes have this effect. It’s kind of like having new company.. you have to show them where the bathroom is. This is why I always insist on crate training even if they’re older dogs. Because I see this more often than not. Don’t feel bad about crating and limiting his freedom for a bit. Dogs are like children and need boundaries. You just need to reset his boundaries while he’s still decompressing in a new environment
Thank you! I have a young puppy and often she poops in the garage or pee inside... I didn't know how to correct or make her understand that it's outside, but I'll start using the high value treat since I'm already using treats for potty time.
Thank you! I'll keep this in mind. I just got my boy yesterday and he's almost 3 and a grand champion. He is crate trained since he is a show dog and house trained but I think the change in ownership and environment just has him a little nervous. I will do the food/water dish suggestion at dinner for the rest of the week. I took him out immediately this morning for a long walk, were he only peed. Since he didn't eat much the night before I figured he simply didn't have to go. We got home and I took a shower and he pooped on the floor. I'll give what you are saying a try and report back!
@@YahirSvtI want to kno if it worked to bcuz I'm sick of my dog, She pees and poops in her crate several times a day even tho she goes outside several times a day like every 2 to 3 hrs. I'm about ready to evict her bcuz I'm tired of cleaning up after her. She knows to go do her business outside and she will but then come back in the house and go in her cage. I keep her in the cage bcuz she eats up everything in sight. Wat am I supposed to do bcuz giving treats for doing good isn't helping, She'll do her business in her crate
Indeed the message lacks clarity but he did not say to do nothing or just let them continue. When he says "don't correct" them he means don't punish them for something they are confused about that is (y)our job to be informed about and facilitate.
Bro you literally said nothing, no conclusions at all. Kinda reminds me of when I had a school project I wasn’t prepared for so I had to do improv on the spot
How comforting to know other people have problems with poo/wee training doggies! ...this makes me feel so much better. I have 2 rescue doggies, Molly 7, had for 6.5 years... perfectly potty trained. Brilliant. Got ex breeding doggy who's been with me for 1 year, poos and wees on the floor, or in one of the dogs beds.... I'm at a loss at what to do. She poos and pees when I've gone out and left them.
I deleted my comment because ive believe it wasnt for your video and thank you for reaching out to ask me if i needed help that was very much appreciated.
Can you go into more detail about what we should be doing? Most of this video was about what not to do and without a specific alternative I'm still clueless. How do I control their food? How do I prevent the behavior? Do I just always leave them outside? You say not to put food in the floor should I put it on a box? You mentioned kennels but not how to use them. Everytime I put my dog in a kennel he instantly panics and gets his teeth stuck in the bars. Blood gets everywhere. I have had this dog 10 years and for about 7 of them he never had accidents. After I met my husband he started peeing in the house all the time. My husbands adult dog was never properly house trained and I think this may be why.
@@AltheDogTrainer hi there, I just came across your channel today! We have two L'hasa Apso dogs and they're WONDERFUL but for some crazyyyy reason, I thought oh let's get another dog, so we got this 6 month old Standard Poodle and he is adorable lol and at first he was doing great going potty in this closed in outdoor courtyard but all of the sudden he is doing his business inside 🙈 and unfortunately I didn't do what you say said in this video cuz I just saw your video so sadly I got upset with him and yelled at him and put his nose in the area.... Anyways too late now, I guess it's my Latin temper lol the good news is he is still alive jk but I'm trying to get this potty training under control. Please tell me you're in Palm Coast Florida? We need your help! 😭🙈
I also find some videos long-winded and not specific, but did find good tips here. I’ve fostered dogs for two decades. This is what I told a recent adoptee of an insecure dog that’s having accidents on the first few days in the new home: Yes… He needs more boundaries. Bring the crate into kitchen and he should be crate trained all over again. It’s not a bad thing, he just needs to learn where it’s acceptable there to go to the bathroom. I’m assuming he gets kenneled at night. When let out of the crate in the morning he should be lead immediately outside in the yard… bring treats and go out with him.

Then again, Potty, Good Boy, Treat, Free-Time, Crate. For most dogs I’ve had to house break, I’ve bought cheap hot dogs or some chicken, cut them up in small pieces, keep them in a zip lock bag and when they potty, they get that special “high-value” treat.

@@AltheDogTrainer I agree with a lot of what you're saying, but do believe if you catch your dog in the act, its OK to give him/her a verbal queue "NO" as most dogs learn pretty quickly what this word means. My dog is small enough to where i will pick him/her up and go straight outside. To your point of them learning by going outside 700 times, that is the best place to go. I don't correct for excitement peeing - I agree with you on that, I am hoping he grows out of it :-)
Willie Wilcoxen thanks for responding. A very small percentage of dog training should be making it clear where the boundary is. I think you should say no to you dog. This way, you are being precise with them about what you don’t want. However, if that is the only tactic that is used, then it seems to me that there is very little chance the dog will actually know what you want. When it comes to excitement peeing, using a crate and closing the door several times until they calm down is a great way to frustrate them into calmness. Once they are calm, time to really reward them for being calm and the peeing then starts to go away. I hope this is helpful and I am glad you responded.
@@AltheDogTrainer For small dogs there is the Doggie Door/Flap which my dogs have although its not always used ..!!! plus those dogs unable to hold their urine during night time for whatever reason, why didnt you mention diapers?. Of course my suggestions are only for the smaller dogs.
So I have a dog door, I have two small dogs. Every morning I take them straight outside and they do their business etc “outside, go puddles” they are receptive to this command as it’s been used from day one. But then I come home from work? And there is always one or two pee puddles inside, even with the dog door? They have access to the yard. And during the night one of them gets up and pees inside even though I take them both out before bed and do the same ritual. How can I stop them from doing this during the day? I can’t lock them outside because they bark and go crazy and we have had complaints from the local council etc so the dog door has completely stopped that.
My dog only responds to my newspaper smacking my leg (for the noise factor) and yelling. She knows better but does it anyway. Praise doesn't phase her.
My dad trained dogs in the Army, and I have always been good at training myself. Though the only 2 dogs I ever had problems house training were both Maltese dogs. One was 9 when she came to live with us, and she only lived until 12, because she had health issues. I adopted a 3 year old rescue Maltese 3 months ago, and was told he was house trained. My pups have a doggy door to go out to our beautiful fenced in back yard when ever they want, and these 2 Maltese dogs are the only ones that I have had issues training. I taught my new pup how to use the doggy door as soon as he came home with me, and he didn't potty in the house for 3 days. Then he started pottying now and then in the house, and it's getting worse. I don't know what the problem is, because he loves his new home and my other 2 pups. I am trying to use crate training now, hoping that controlling when he goes outside will help. Though I feel awful leaving him in the crate for so long, while my other 2 pups are sleeping in bed with me, or snuggling on the couch. If I let him sit on the couch with us, he will sneak off and potty about 6 ft from the doggy door, instead of going outside. I really don't understand why this new pup is pottying in the house....
Our Golden Doodle is giving us the same problem but my other two dogs are saints. Why I got another dog beats me lol. I hope your dogs finally learned to go outside.
My Maltese male is 7-1/2 months old and is peeing and now started to poop inside the house He's being neutered in a month I'm hoping that helps with marking however I think I'm screwed with the pooping I have a BIG yard and let him out every hour on the hour (I use the stove timer) he STILL craps and pees in the house ‼️ I'm VERY VERY FRUSTRATED, I'm a clean person and my other female dog doesn't do any of this BS 🤬
@@iM4EvrL8……..I have a 5 year old Maltese that poops and pees in the house. One issue is the man of the house is very inconsistent taking the dog out when I’m gone. Oh he says he does but I truly don’t know. The dog is generally very obedient with me but has his moments. I just cannot get him to consistently go out. It’s soooooo frustrating but I would never give him away!
I'm really open to feedback. If you've a valid answer that's not just the "don't correct the behaviour and have less pets" that you had in the video, I'd be more than happy to redact my statement and listen to your likely expert opinion on the matter. Thank you in advance good sir.
Yeah not everyone has a menagerie. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats, our home & yard is enough to facilitate them. The newer/younger of the 2 dogs has been pooping inside , often in rooms where there's a cat box. She knows to go outside and has access but seems to be going inside due to some behavioral thing. She is an intact female about 2 years old and it went from okay well she's a puppy still potty training to okay there's something else going on here. Would love some more specifics to try.
try helping me. i got 4 dogs and alot of outside land. we leave dogs out to use bathroom but instead of the 90 acers of land to piss and poop on, they shit inside the garage and on the driveway. anyfix? they are useally outside 90/100% of the time
Well my dog was a rescue and whoever had her before beat her bad so bad it’s so sad the littlest movement and she pees she can’t help it she is so so frightened she just keeps peeing but I am getting a crate for her definitely a good idea thank you
Having issues with my dog peeing in the house when she is left alone. I took her out at 630 this morning and see peed. My wife took her out at 7:20 she went both. At 7:29 she peed in house. This is a daily occurrence. Anytime we leave this happens. Not sure what to do at this point. Im really tired of cleaning up urine every time I get home. Please help
I have the same problem and like you, can’t find a solution. I’ve heard people say dogs aren’t spiteful, but I don’t believe it… I could be wrong but I believe they do things on purpose when they are not pleased with something. I’m just not sure how to correct that? I have 5 year old pup who doesn’t do that at all and now my new pup is giving us a problem. 🤷🏻♀️
I came seeking help for a pet family member who regressed BACK to peeing in the house. I only got chastised. "Its my fault blame myself." wtf thanks for the help, not like I didnt already have enough self confidence issues buddy. change your tone.
Thanks. Just adopted (or she adopted me) an adult dog who was pregnant. Neighbors abandoned her. Got the puppies and the mom, but the mom poops inside almost every night. Trying to train her. Thanks for the advice.
Good luck. Nobody talks about this enough Dogs not getting it? Potty training WISE is probably the leading reason folks give up on being pet owners. Even when trained, some seem to prefer going inside rather than outside
HELP! I am at my witts end, both dogs were kinda just laid on my lap, I live in apartment, and I've literally tried everything to stop this peeing and pooping in my house. I can't take much more. I love them but something has to give
6:44 et MY dogs Will Go outside and be out with me any where from 30 minutes to 2 hours. When we come back inside they poop and pee in My house. I have 3 male dogs. They do this almost immediately. I'm so sick of cleaning up potty messes. It's so very upsetting to the point I've cried over this.
We have both owned many dogs in our lives and been successful with potty training many times over. We have a Dutch we got from a rescue as a puppy and she’s nearly 2 and STILL goes inside. She has zero patience once she tells you she has to go. If she’s not outside with you within a minute or two she’s gonna pee right there. The crate does not work for her at all. She pees and poops in it alllllll the time, even if she just did both outside not 30minutes earlier. She also doesn’t ask in the crate. She goes and then complains. We have a 3yr old Malinois that we kept crated the first 1.5-2yrs whenever not eating, exercising, or training, etc. Any time our full attention couldn’t be given to watch him, he was crated and it worked beautifully for him. He is well behaved and knows how to behave in the house and likes to go in his crate on his own. No potty issues. She came to us as a consumer so it was important all eyes were on her at all times she was out. Her foster was allowing her to eat and carrying around items like rocks and we needed to break that habit immediately. She was allowed to walk in and out of the house all the time so potty wasn’t an issue there. She’s killing us with going in her crate multiple times every day. She’s on a schedule for food, drink, potty, play, etc and it’s made no difference. We went to our summer cottage and she only had a few accidents the whole time but we spent most of the time outside with her because she would try to drink the whole lake every time she went to play and would need to pee a good 4-6 times before we could even think of bringing her back in. (It’s an extremely clean small private lake-promise it’s safe water! It’s tested!) We came home and she was immediately back to her old ways. She can hold it for a really long time too, so it’s not that. There’s been random occasions where she’s held it for 8-10hrs no problem! What in the world can we possibly do!?
My dog knows how to use the restroom inside but he does it when we go on vacation and leave him with the kids . He will pee on the suitcases before we leave and will continue for weeks and weeks after we get back. We have 3 other dogs and all of them are well aware that they should go outside, it's just him. He doesn't like to go outside when it is raining and when we great trade him he barks all night long.
I love my dog but she gets on my nerves sometimes i literally have to take her to the bathroom every 5 minutes because all my parents do is keep giving her more and more food they need to quit over feeding her she only needs to eat twice a day
The video here is helpful but the “how to” was not easy to understand and follow. We need step by step on what we should do. A lot of time was used explaining, don’t do this, but the how to was a bit unclear. Thank you!
My dog was house trained for two plus years, but he has pooped in his crate two days in a row. Not sure what is going on. They say that dogs do go through teenage rebellious stage, and that may be the reason, but I am not sure.
I've done the leash toilet time, and praised, and putting him in the crate. He's still marking EVERYWHERE!! 🤦🏼♀️ He's so difficult, at a point when I'm feeling like I'm going have to get rid of him.
my 3 year old dog which has been well behaved. He just started going in the house. The first couple of times was when it was raining. So I thought it would correct itself. he is literally going in front of the doggy door. This is a dog that goes everywhere with. He is on hand commands, voice commands, remote, He is really awesome. People are amazed to the level of our relationship. . When I walk into the room his body language tells me we went in the house,so he knows. I don't know how to correct a already trained dog. I guess start over? any suggestions.
So by saying quit hording animals, we should just dump them off at the pound? I only went out of my way to get our German Shepherd, all the rest are rescues, so that wasn't a very helpful comment. I'll move on to someone who can really help me.
So I’m not home till 4 pm my dog stays inside big cage she’s a frenchie then when I let her outside when I get home she don’t pee and waits till she’s inside and goes.
Hey, I just adopted a 7 month old puppy who isn’t properly potty trained and she is peeing and pooping in the house. She doesn’t let me know when she needs to go and I’m getting a little frustrated because when I take her out in the back yard, she just walks around and then just sits there (I can stay there with her for 30 mins, and nothing) and then we go back home and she runs and pees on the floor. I trained my tiny JackChi, but I had him since he was 9 weeks old and I feel like he was more clued up than she is. I was training my sister’s dog when she was a puppy and I feel like girls are harder to potty train than boys. I feel like she doesn’t like my yard, maybe she used to pee on grass or dirt, and my yard is paved. There’s one spot when she goes 50% of the time, which doesn’t have the pavement but rather dirt. But she doesn’t go there all the time, she still pees in the house and doesn’t let me know when she needs to go. I trained my JackChi to use a floor bell and he lets me know every time he needs to go, but her - I’m just losing my patience. (Also, what didn’t you mean by not leaving the food or water on the floor?? Where am I supposed to leave it? What did you mean by that?) She isn’t crated, I never crated my dogs. Any suggestions? Also, I’m in the U.K., so I can’t text you.
Perhaps you could use potty pads as the target. I’d place them outside. Then, each and every time you give your dog food and water, place them in a crate about the size of their body. When you let them out, take them to the potty pad and reward if they go. If they don’t go, place them back in the crate and wait for them to whine telling you that it’s time to go. DO NOT LET THEM HAVE ANY ACCIDENTS FOR A WEEK. Thats the hardest part because you would have to be very diligent. Good luck
My dog that I rescued over 4 1/2 years ago just started not to want to go out in my backyard to go to the bathroom and he is only going outside once a day, how can I get him to go out of the back of his crate and he seems to be in no pain or discomfort?
First I give them access to food and water. Then I crate them in the same room that I am in. During that time I listen, and see if I can learn what sound they will make when they are ready. If I hear something that I believe is then being ready to go, I take them out and give them several minutes. If they do go, I try my best to learn the sound cue they made and repeat that. Good luck!
@@AltheDogTrainer When the dog lifts his leg against your Chippendale table and farts at your fancy dinner party, then it is time for him to go...and visit your parents for a couple of hours. Think of yourself in your finest dudery, down on you hands and knees cleaning up p and p. I advise, if you have any kind of back yard you get one of those bio-gradeable poop buckets that you put a layer of lime in and then an layer of sand. It has holes in the bottom so you can wash it out after you pick it up with a shovel. Yes, shovel... you want to look out for worms.
Your dog will basically do the pee pee dance but the dog equivalent lol. He will usually sniff a lot and in circles. (Sometimes it is a false alarm though lol). Also their butthole will kinda squeeze itself when they’re ready (I know gross but it’s a big queue that they’re gonna go…)
Came here, like many have after about 9 months (for me) trying to find reasonable solutions to this issue. Google, YT, IG friends who are pet owners and the like. Everyone talks puppy advice and what not to do. A waste of 4 minutes on YT again. Healthy 2 1/2 year American Mix Pit. Busy schedule, but make sure I walk her 2-3 times a day... about 2 hours total. Play with her in and out the house. We have established a regular spot for her to go outside. Wee pads work occasionally when I'm not home. I can't let her roam free when I'm not home, as she IS certain to poop on the floor which is why I have a designated space for her. Time the food to outside walk, play and bathroom routine/ratio. Toys and music for her when I'm not around for stimulation. I'm exhausted now, and a very patient and persistent first time dog owner. Never scolded her but always reinforce when a she goes in the outside designated area. This video just made me EXTRA frustrated. The only thing positive about this video is, at least he didn't just assume we all have puppies. 90% of these videos assume we all have puppies. I'm 99% certain, had I had her as a pup, I'd wouldn't have this issue. She's soon to be 3, and it's getting way out of hand.
I have a shop with with an air conditioned office. My dog will not poop or pee in the office when he is contained in the office. When the dog is in the shop space with doors open to the outside he will pee and poop in the shop on occasion. I have never caught him in the act, but when I notice the mess he looks sorry as if he knows what he did. I love the dog and community likes the dog, he has a nice personality. I only scold the dog when he poops and pees in the shop space, other than that, the dog is an angel. If he has the option to go outside why does he choose to mess up my shop? When the shop is closed I purposely lock him in the office to avoid cleaning his mess. I am very conchous of giving my dog access to outside. The dog has never pooped or peed in the office. I am confused, I need help.
An old friend of mine from years ago, when his dog would poop or pee in the house, he'd put the poop in the dogs food dish. If he chewed up phone chargers, clothing, etc, he'd leave the chewed up item in his dogs food bowl?? Thoughts anyone?
Here you go. This should help. How do I potty train my dog? Potty training your dog is one of the first things you want to teach your dog. Because who wants to step in and smell poo and pee in their home. It might seem overwhelming, so I am going to lay out a plan that will get your dog headed in the right direction. First, get specific about where you want your dog to go. When you know precisely where that is, you will take your dog to that exact spot for the next few weeks. Don’t complicate it by having more than one spot. Two, don’t give free access to food and water. Yes, your dog does need to have this several times each day, but, if it is out all the time, then it’s going to be very difficult for you to know when it’s time for your dog to go. Third, after you give your dog food and water, I want you to crate them. The crate should be about the size of their body and not much bigger. I want you to crate your dog for 20 to 40 minutes. The time really varies from dog to dog. So, when your dog is in the crate, you will need to listen to them well. At some point, you will hear a vocalization from them that means it is time to go. Now, take them to the potty area. I suggest saying “Go Potty” as you are walking them out. When you get to the potty area, give them some time. I suggest 3 to 5 minutes. If during that time they use the restroom, liberally reward them to make it clear that this is among the best things to do. If they don’t go potty, place them in the crate again but for a much shorter amount of time. Again, listen to them well, so that way you can learn when they are ready to go. This is the basic plan I use to teach potty training. If you need something more than this, be sure to send me a message.
Is there doing this while you are gone they don't have an option. Think what you would do if you were in a location and had to go and didn't have a toilet available.
My dog suffers from bladder stones so leaving extra water out is necessary. I always tell him how good he is and take him 4-5 times a day. He friggn CHOOSES to pee inside and poop. He doesnt like going in the same spot outside . We have to walk to new smells. Which after a mile or so becomes slightly irritating to have to do everyday every time. He wont go until were out of the usual scents of thr neighborhood. Its not possible to always walk this far, and even he gets pooped out on our return walk its hard. He wont go. At all. Then decides to piss on everything when we get back. I don't get it
Aurora Grace that’s a really good question. You’re not simply taking it away all together, your going to get the timing perfect to eliminate the mistakes. If you give the dog water, crate them, and then take them out to pee. If you get that chain of events and then reinforce, everyone wins. However, if you leave the water out all the time and your dog pees, then everyone loses, especially your dog.
@@AltheDogTrainer AND what if your dog has a kidney problem BUT the owner has not yet picked up on that fact ... very detrimental to that dog, plus a lot of dogs are fed kibble and they need water. A vet will tell you that water should always be available.... Right?!

So HOW do you get them to stop doing it in the house? My dog is 55 lbs dog is peeing big spot in her kennel before I even get home there are puddles. She lays in it all day. I get home and immediately put a leash on her and try to take her outside, puddles. Do you know what did work? Sticking her nose in the poop she pooped yesterday. Then taking her outside and then praising her for going outside. This worked with my last dog. And the two before that. Im glad you have the perfect dog that can be trained to not pee in their kennel, but I have never come a crossed a dog that can’t hold her pee for such short amounts of time
It’s videos like this where all the trainer does is basically say “hey it’s your fault you don’t take your dog out enough” that urks me. And saying “in the special case” to address 90% of the people coming to this video looking for real advice on how to deal with a behavioral problem with going in the house is not helpful. There are a lot of dogs who know where they are supposed to go is outside, however choose not to for a any number of reasons; laziness, they don’t like the weather conditions outside, willful defiance, or in interesting circumstances pettiness. These are living creatures with personalities as complex as humans. And using the training belief that it’s always just human at fault is leaving a lot of dogs behind who actually are having a behavioral problem making them mess in the house, and creating an extremely unhealthy relationship between owners and dogs cause the owner believes they’re doing something wrong and they don’t have the avenues to correct the behavior.
Popped my dog his first couple months of having him and he never has done it since and no he dose t flinch when I act like imma hit him. He knows if ur a bad boy you get that butt popped jus like a kid
She knows to go potty outside (we have a doggy door) but if she doesn’t get enough attention she poops in this specific place on the rug. I’ve blocked the area so she can’t poop there I shut hope she doesn’t look for a new spot. It’s not like she doesn’t know to not poop there she just chooses to when she doesn’t get enough attention. What would you recommend :/
When I think about these kinds of problems I try to place myself in the dog's shoes. The question that you will have to make clear to your dog is why it is significantly better to go outside where you want it to. when you answer this question from your dog's point of view and then create a ritual around that, then the likelihood of your dog going where you want it to will increase. What is something that you could do that would make it beyond obvious to your dog that outside is clearly the best?
I have a pit bull fully potty trained but for some reason once a month will poop multiple times on my kids room floor and pees on my sons bed! What do you think is happening please help I don’t want to get rid of him he’s such a good dog but I can’t have that help please And yes it’s only my kids room they share a room btw
Helpful, i got mentally sick with with my teacup poodle for keep doing it i loss all my patient and started beat her. I worried she might get die and i thought it is better she dies than her company. I believe this video helps me to understand my mistakes.
Oh my. Yes we often make mistakes of thinking dogs think like us and have the same animal behaviors. Hitting/hurting them does not fix a problem it just makes them scared of you & potentially others. Please try to put yourself in your dogs shoes when you are upset & how you, as an innocent creature would want and deserves to be treated. Use positive reinforcement to praise them when they do it correctly , and learn the different reasons dogs may do this and try informed methods with CONSISTENCY. Anything done with dogs should be consistent to be effective. I hope things are better and that you have found a different better way to handle this than hitting.
Hippie mentality kills me. They assume that if the owner is doing something wrong if the dog is doing something wrong, as if the dog doesn't have a will of its own. The question isn't "If I don't walk my dog regularly or on any schedule, and just let them eat and drink whenever they want, how do I stop it from peeing and pooping in the house?". Some dogs simply do as they please, and need to be corrected. True, correction doesn't create good habits or teach what correct actions are, but that's not the purpose of correction. The purpose of correction is to BREAK bad habits, and teach what incorrect actions are. Also, how can correction be wrong if this is how dogs teach each other?
Have you checked with a vet to see if anything's wrong with those pets that are changing their behavior and going in the house? Also there are indoor options that could be bought for small dogs such as little grassy areas. The 12-year-old dog may just be having issues because he's getting older. Give him a break. Hopefully someone will give you a break when you're peeing all over when you're older.
My dogs and me are moving. My moving stress is likely rubbing off on them but how can I survive this and not pull my hair out? Any tips for this? It's been twice today thus far and its stressing me out to the point where I want to rehome them or have someone watch them temporarily as I am just pissed at them.
I am working on getting rid of pee pads, and I notice the signs, hes sniffing the floor, he's circling, he's standing at the door. At this point in time, I take him out and he gets distracted when we get outside, and he doesn't want to go anymore. We go back inside, I take my eye off him for one second and he goes indoors. Our puppy is so smart so it is ME that is missing it. And I wish I can communicate to him that I just want him to go potty outside. What am I doing wrong?
What if they only pee in your home ONLY when you leave your house?!!! 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ You take them outside, but when u bring them upstairs to go to work, they decide to pee like marking 🤦🏾♀️This has been his behavior since the lockdowns. I live on the 5th floor in a NYC apartment. My dog just turned 13 years old. And he likes to pee in building's hallway. I am so frustrated. 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
I'm so sorry. I know it has got to be so frustrating for you. You may want to get a local dog trainer involved. I'd reach out to Dream Come True K9. I feel that they would be able to help.
Albert Wilson I’m so sorry things aren’t headed in the right direction. I’d love to talk to you so we can get this sorted out. Text me at (832) 734-5189.
Baby is 9 months old and I’ve had my pup for 7 years never had this until the past week and it’s been every single night for a week poop and pee no diahrea just simply seems like a behavior could be medical will have this check ASAP.. she has NEVER done this since a puppy unless she was sick
My dog goes outside poops and and pees and will still come inside and poop the tiniest poo and it’s like she doesn’t even really have to go but just does it I really do t get it
That’s why I love cats, they aren’t slobbering over me, and when I ignore my cat he moves on with his life, and when he needs to use the bathroom he goes to the litter, dogs are something else entirely, always need love and attention constantly constantly constantly constantly. I might as well have a kid by now, with all that damn training.
I've a bichon frise his let out constantly walked he still pissing all over the kitchen his own beds into his dog bowl now his starting to poop in the house his two
Little late here, and I don't have a whole lot of experience, but you're REALLY one sided here, man, and honestly, also incorrect in my limited experience. When the jssue happens, he also hasn't eaten or drank prior to the issue. We use a collar to take him ouside at key times and have had roughy 786 times of good behaviour after which, priased good behavior. Please correct me if I'm wrong here, but my dog is great at going potty outside and is on a great schedule. He does do the occasional excitement pee, which is fine and we're trying to figure that one out, but otherwise is excellent. Except when we take him outside, he pees and then just wanders for 8-10 minutes. Then, on occasion, will go inside and very calmly poop. He knows exactly when to go outside, just sometimes doesn't. We don't have any other pets, so I presume there isn't any marking issues. I think I covered all of your points.
My dog will go poop in the house right after taking them out, I'll even put the other dog in and let him walk without distraction. He never pees inside. What do I do?
@@charlie_jack_chi best solution is to get rid of them...I will not have a animal I have to pick up their poop and pee every day along with the stink in the house and ruining floors and rugs.I can't tolerate such a animal.good luck with your decision.
I have a dog door and a fenced in back yard. When I am home my dog goes out side to to poop and pee, but when I’m gone my dog will go in the house and basement. What can do to get him to go outside when I’m not home?
Do you have a tip about a dog that wont stop marking inside. I have German Shepard my husband dog he is the best, very sweet but he keep marking the house and i'm not sure how to deal with this
Just found your video and boy am I in need of help. I’ve got two corgis and they both have their own issues that I cannot find an answer for. One will potty wherever they please regardless of how I try to train/reward. The other barks and barks and pees whenever he is corrected and I just can’t figure out why. Please help.
I just got a 4 yr old French bulldog and her previous owners said she was potty trained. I understand she may have had another routine at their home and I’m trying to get her adjusted here. I take her out to potty on a leash and praise her when she potty’s outside and give her a treat. But sometimes as soon as we come in she will pee or poop in the house. I have noticed that she will “dig” in a couch cushion occasionally and pee, literally after I saw her pee outside. I did tell her no and tried to correct her, put her on a leash and went back outside. She did not pee, even though she was given the opportunity again, once we came inside, i did put her in her crate and said “bed” I will try putting down the food at a specific time and not leave it out to free feed. But should I pick up the water as well? I’m getting tired of washing the couch cushions, but my patience is still there. I came here for advice, i feel I am on the right track after watching the video, except for the fact that i was correcting her verbally and leaving the food out. Thanks
Three to four year old husky. Was house trained. We went on vacation for 3 weeks. The house sitter had a puppy. Probably had a couple accidents. Had some small renovations. Windows and doors replaced. No longer had doggie door in sliding door, now it's around the corner in the hallway as a pass through, they all know where it is and how to use it very well. This has continued a month after the house sitter is gone. He has been taken to the vet and screened , he is physically perfectly fine.. We're using kennel again. leash training. Anytime he is not physically watched he takes that opportunity to mark / urinate. (Generally at the foot of a chair or a table ) We've gone through the house with a black light cleaning any spots we could find thoroughly. We've used products such as p-wiz/nature's miracle/awesome Orange & Bissell pet odor carpet cleaner. Using a carpet wet vac. *Is very close to end up being an outside dog but my weather does not permit this in summer with a husky seeing as I'm in the middle of the Sonoran desert w high temperature. I've given all the information I can think of at the moment. If you got any advice to help I am listening.
Looks like Longoriahaus Dog Training is unable to answer your question as it has been COMPLETELY IGNORED. I would also like answers to a dog that was fully housetrained but now will mark ... nothing wrong with his health etc etc.. bloody annoying to say the least. This guy in the vid has no idea really... thats the answer!!
@@pamela9926 according to research with other people. there's plenty of reasons why this is happening. We have decided retrain. The kennel when we're not home. On a leash when we are. 🤷 He is a gentle giant. Doesn't take well to negative reinforcement. food/treats doesn't seem to be much of a incentive , as it is for my other dogs. My female is in heat also.. maybe he'll stop when she is done. .. I really have no idea..
My puppy is q6 weeks and os pretty almost there except for one wee inside everyaybe once a week But consistently poops inside no matter. I dpnt knpw what to do
My dog will push upstairs past the barrier just to poop in my daughter's bedroom. I let him out. We stay outside for him to go to the bathroom. He'll pee but then come back in the house. Go upstairs and poop in her bedroom
So if I punched you in the face would you forgive me or. Call the cops 😂…..I don’t understand how y’all have so much patience with animals….this video is proof that dogs are animals that should be outside at all times ….have more children is that really bad ?
One of my best friends had a problem with one of his dogs who just would not ever want to use the bathroom outside. This problem was so bad and I mean unreal kindda bad, So he come home one day and put the dog out in the kennel and then dropped his pants and took a hot creamy poop right into the dogs kennel, after bringing the dog there for the usual time it spends, tha dog clearly as frustrated as the owner, I kid you not, this dog never ever 💩 in the house again . This isn't advice I would give anyone but I do know I seen this happen back in 1998.
I agree with @nicoleflowers7. My shepherd is almost 3. We’ve recently moved. He never pooped or peed inside until we moved into our new apartment. We take him out constantly. My boxer. Bam put him on the leash he goes out side poops, pees and he’s done want to go inside. 2 min. Process. My shepherd will not do it. Not consistently. I walk him to go potty for minimum 30mins before work, 30 on lunch from my work, nada, I get home and there’s poop and pee. Just last night both I and my fiancé took him out for a 30 min walk each, nada. We come inside and leave to go get dinner, nada. We turn our head for 30 seconds and what do you know. Fresh poop. In the same spot. As soon as I even point it out he knows. By his posture he knows. He’s been house broken for years. I’m not sure how to correct this behavior
I would imagine so as it’s a pet friendly place. However it does have new carpet. I believe it might’ve been a schedule issue. He’s very very very sensitive competitively. He poops outside at about 9:00pm close to the same spot and he circles about 6 or 7 times before he finally squats.
try taking him or her out every one to two hours , before bed , after naps , after eating , and after playing . it's going pretty good for me i just got my new puppy 4 days ago and he was horrible before . i did this though and he's getting much better !!! he was no where near potty trained even a little before i did this
I have a 3.5month old daschund puppy. He is well trained to poop outside but pees inside the house. No matter however I clean it he still pees inside.What can I do to stop this..?? Pls help
yea i might be giving mind away i tired everything maybe someone will have a better luck i tired its been a year and some and he trained too go outside but he wanna what he wanna do and he know thats that bad what he doing cause he hids when he do something bad so im at a lost not everyones a good fit
Kind of a nonchalant presentation with less information than expected. He's right: disciplining in the moment doesn't have the desired effect in the long run. And this video doesn't much address multiple dogs in the home, and is mostly "Don'ts" instead of "Dos". The hoarding attitude is maybe why he's not effective. Some fosters out there have to take on more than one.
