You are very welcome:)
If you follow those tips, you will have her housebroken in no time! Remember, timing, motivation and consistency are the keys. And always stay calm when giving a correction, alot of people get angry when correcting their dog, and all that shows the dog is that they have an unstable leader. Dogs do not follow unstable leaders. Humans are the only species that do that!! |

I found the best thing to help house training was a cat door.. i mean dog door... took 1 day to train our 2nd dog to go outside as he was always locked in area he couldnt get out of. Tho it did take a week for him to get used to the cat door.. its not an option with big dogs but small dogs it is perfect. that and a fully fenced yard.
Another thing about dogs and their breeds traits. You cant stop their natural instincts from kicking in. Max may have been doing this for years but at christmas she wandered off with the kids and left them once she was out of sight of us and dispatched a family of turkeys... I caught her half way thru a set of ducks.. and both of them got a cat the other week but it got away from them.. they are evil as a team, but by themselves not sooo bad... just have to keep an eye on them.. you should see what they can do to an unattened plate of food at a bbq... something they never do at home... |
