Dog Obedience Training Ideas

Posts Tagged ‘housebreaking’

I had a hard time housebreaking my dog (it took two years), and now he’s going in the house again. I don’t think it’s medical since he will hold it up to 12 hours when I have a long work day. He only goes at night, when I’m home. I’m so disappointed and frustrated. He won’t go if he is in my bed with me, but then I don’t get enough sleep because he’s big and wakes up at 4 am wanting to go out. I cleaned the spot where he goes with white vinegar and then let baking soda sit on the spot for almost a week……I don’t know what to do. Help!!!!
He NEVER goes when I am not home, and I never catch ihim int he act. I just thought I’d add that info, because most of the suggestions are focusing around catching him or letting him out. He goes in the house ONLY at night, while we are sleeping.

I’m considering adopting an 8 y.o. dog. She’s my favorite breed… sure I could get a puppy and ‘bond’ with her but I believe an older dog in perile would be equally able to bond. My last dog did anyway.

What are your experiences in adopting an older dog? Did you find that they were ‘gone too soon’ (which is honestly my biggest reluctance). What about housebreaking? Are older dogs able to transfer that knowledge to a new household or are they going to mark new territory?

I’m curious to get a general consensus on this. So please present pros & cons.

Thank you.

We recently added an 11 month old Labradoodle into our home. Shes very smart and sweet, but was very neglected by her previous owner. All the dogs I’ve owned, I acquired when they are very young and easier to train. Any tips on how to go about housebreaking and older dog, all the typical puppy tricks aren’t working!

I have an almost 8 year old male German Shepard (neutered), who has started pooping in our basement almost every night/early morning. We live on 11 acres of land and he is outside almost all day running around. He is a very high strung dog and I suspect it’s something to do with this, but I don’t know how to stop it. We also have a 2 year old female black lab who has had housebreaking issues from day one that we thought we cured, but has started peeing on our kitchen floor even when we’re home and around. Help!! xoxo
