Peeing pup

highlans · 01-20-2009, 02:18 AM

My son in law brought a 14 week English Bull Dog nearly 4 weeks ago, he is a lovely dog apart from peeing and pooping where ever he likes any advice? pleeeeese.

He was brought from the breeder but when they collected him found out he had been returned by a couple who had had him about two weeks. Were told he was just a handfull.

They were told he was paper trained and had been kept in the house but as they had pen's out side we now think not.

They have puppy pads in the kitchen and he may or may not use them depends how he feels. He can be taken out in the garden and then come into the lounge and pee in front of you. They have tried crate training but he then just walks about in the poop and needs a bath.

Apart from this he is very good with the children and will obay basic commands, all the dogs I have had in the past have trained quick so am not sure on what to advise them and idea's????.

I don't know anything about pee pad training but I know that to crate train you only want to give them enough room to lay down. If they have too much room they'll poop in a corner, but they'll learn to hold it if they don't have room to go. It takes time and you have to let a young puppy out regularly because they don't have control of their bladder as well as when they get older. And don't leave them in a kennel to walk in the poop.

When Reuger was a young puppy I had him in a crate at night and when I wasn't watching him and he kept pooping in the crate. I started reading on YorkieTalk about crate training and followed the directions. It sounded so mean to just give Reuger a small amount of room but it worked. He had very few accidents in the kennel after that. Over time I just started giving him a little more room and he's 3 1/2 years old and I can't remember the last accident that he had in the crate. He still sleeps in it at night.

Diana's right! All of mine are crate trained and that's how I did it too.

Thankyou both the crate he has is large so may be they could do with a smaller one, makes sence. Will pass advice on to them.

When I had my yorke I think he may be messed in the house twice, but then is was summer and he was able to get into the garden with the door always open, and when winter came learnt to use the cat flap which our cat to this day never used.

I wouldn't buy a new crate. Just add some boxes or something to fill the space up. That's what I did.

Also when he comes right back in & pees in front of them. Have them clap their hands to startle him & say no or something. This will stop his peeing then pick him up & carry him outside & wait for him to finish there. When he does praise him.

They do do that but he just looks at them as if to say well I need it now.
He came to my house for the first time at the weekend, he had had a long walk prior but walked straight in and peed in the kitchen. Just gona take time I suppose.

Here's an article about paper training that might be helpful.
