House Training a Dog

RE: House Training a Dog Post By Jazzylazzy (Guest Post) (03/17/2008) Was your dog housebroken before? From the picture, it looks like you have an older dog. You need to take him/her to the vet and find out if there is a serious medical condition that is causing the problem. My best dog had diabetes and the manifestation of it was uncontrollable urinating. With medical help, insulin, this was stopped. Best of luck with your sweet dog.

Finally, I called the Vet. They asked if I had a "crate" (or cage). I said, "In fact, the previous owners gave me one with him, yes". They said after taking him for a walk, lock him in the cage. I asked "isn't that cruel?" and they asked me if I wanted to him to stop. I said, "yes, of course". I did precisely what they said and he stopped within a week. Even when we went on vacation over the weekend, the poor fellow held it in for nearly 2 days! Now, that is what I call trained. He enjoys his cage, now, to sleep in with his blankets. I hope this tip helps you! Good luck! Report Spam or Abuse RE: House Training a Dog Post by janeR (2) | (03/05/2008) Contact Limit the area you keep the puppy . We put our pup in the kitchen with newspapers on the floor . When she went on the paper we took it outside with her and let her sniff it and then walked her around for awhile til she went again. Eventually it sunk in and now she is a well mannered dog. Report Spam or Abuse RE: House Training a Dog Post By jane (Guest Post) (03/05/2008) You have to limit the area the dog is in. We kept our puppy in the kitchen the first few weeks with newspaper on the floor. When she went on the paper we brought it and her outside and let her sniff it and then walked her around for a little while. Eventually it sunk in and she is a perfectly mannered dog now.
