INDOOR DOGS

[Guest BIG FRANK]

KEPT TWO PUPS OFF MY LITTER AND I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT MY DOGS OUTSIDE BUT ONE IS NEALY 11 AND A CRANKY OLD THING AND SHE WILL NAIL OTHER DOGS .

SO I WANT TO KEEP THESE IN THE CONY ILL PUT A BED IN THE CORNER ECT..........BUT THEY WONT SHIT OR PISS ON PAPER THERE IN THE YARD ALL DAY BUT WHEN I COME HOME THERE WITH ME AND NOMATTER HOW MANY TIMES I PUT THEM ON PAPER THEY DONT BOTHER THEMSELVE....

NOW IVE HERD OF PUPS BEING HOUSE TRAINED WITHIN A WEEK AM I DOING ANYTHING WRONG OR IS THERE A BETTER WAY?

 

 

 

 

WHAT DID YOU DO? :sick:

My pup is 11 months now and she sleeps indoors. however I take her to the office every day and she has a kennel and tun out in the yard. toilet training tooklonger than normal but I thik its about getting them into a rotuine. make sure the get out firstthing in the morning and see how long they take after they feed to go to the toilet. you can then let them out at roughly the same time.

 

do you have a cage? if not i would get one. my pup very rarely did the toilet in the cage. i just let her out first thing in the morning and she started to get her own rotuine.

 

best of luck anyway

Minion's spot on about getting them out once ye've fed them. A pup in training will often need a shit within five minutes of eating. Watch them closely and ye'll soon be able to set ye watch by their time period.

 

Talking of time periods; I've found it's usually futile to expect any pup to even be able to contol its guts till it's fourteen weeks old or so anyway. So ye really have to just accept that. After all; Who'd ever expect a human baby not to cry or shit it's nappies for a good while?

 

NEVER allow yeself to lose ye rag and scold a pup for having a dump or piss in ye house. Start that game and ye'll mentally cripple the Dog for life. End up with one that'll cringe if ye look at it sideways and then probably piss itself when ye ask it what it's cringing for.

 

And the best way to avoid it all ~ and keep ye favourite books and treasured bits and pieces in as good order as ye pups and ye own minds through all this? Minion has it again; Get a little indoor kennel. (Crate. Cage. Dog House. What ever ye want to call it). They truly Are f*cking brilliant.

 

Cheap as chips. Buy them in any bigger pet store. Fold up and vanish into the roof space or garage once ye've done with them.

 

Put pups little bed in there, leaving just enough room for the two bowls. Feed pup in there and give it it's toys in there (Kong's, again, are truly excellent). Make it a nice, peaceful, personal space for the Dog. Dinner in there. Few minutes and whisk pup out to the garden. They soon get the craic. First and last thing to. And every couple of hours ye about in the mheantime won't hurt. It's a baby, after all.

 

Best bit is, ye'll likely have a job stopping the growing Dog getting into it's little 'room'. They like it. And that's great too. Nothing more relaxing than a Dog who'll happilly bounce into it's bed and can perfectly contentedly settle down in there, with the door closed, while you get on with something ye don't need a Dog getting involved in

 

Don't take my word for it though. Ask the bloody great Rottweiller, happily snoozing in her own somewhat bigger indoor kennel, right behind this chair I'm sitting in!

i used a dog cage indoors.

 

taken dog out every hour or so and praise them when they do it outside. block the cage off so that there is enough room to move about but not to much and also feed inside the cage as a dog will not want to shit or piss in the same place the dog sleeps or eats, pups will normally let you know when they want to out, after so long move onto feeding outside the cage and lengthen the time between taking pups out. but if they do do it in the house and you dont actually catch them red handed there is nothink you can do mate. im sure you will do fine mate. but i would defently reccoment the cages but some people dont use them and get on fine but its very handy at night and when you are out aswell, but what ever you decide mate good luck.
