sometimes when a dog gets older it can have a hard time holding its pee when it get excited or scared, especially if its been scolded or reprimanded about it.it may need a bit more time than a 5 min shot out the back door in the morning rush before school. some have been paper trained and if so buy a cheap rubber door mat and put papers over in a quiet place, basement or laundry, back porch etc and show her that if it needs to go and no ones home thats the place to do it and she'll get praised for it.

You ever think maybe the dog doesn't have enough time to do its business. The dog may need up to a half hour to finish its business when you take the dog out side.
That or the dog might have a bladder infection, take it to the vet to find out.

You need to take her out alot more often than twice a day.

are your parents not willing to take out the dog?
Do they both work? Could they not help with this, even though IT IS YOUR DOG.?

1) Take the dog to the vet. The dog could have a medical problem such as a urniary tract infection (UTI) or bladder/kidney stones or other problems that can/should be diagnosed and treated by the Vet.
2) www.petsmart.com has dog pads that are washable and hold 5 times their weight in fluid. They do not allow urine odor, hold up well, and can take 300 washings before they loose their odor fighting capacity. They aren't cheap, $50 a pad, but that's nothing if you want to keep your dog.

First, the dog needs more time to go to the bathroom, especially since you are only taking it out three times a day. Can you only go to the bathroom just three times a day? Try it and see how well you do.

well this could be a possiblity and i hope not to offend anyone what if the dog smells urine in areas of the house that were already there.i have had this problem with two dogs i have bladder problems and when i put my dog on my bed where i sit and sleep he always pees at first i got mad but then i realized what was going on so i got the urine be gone to get rid of any smell that may make the dog think its alright to go there

We have 2 boston terrier puppies our female is 11 months old. She continually goes to the bathroom on our childrens beds, on their clothes, in their closets anywhere!!!.

My kids are gone every weekend and while they are gone our dog uses the bathroom on their bed. Could this be her way of showing that she is mad at them for leaving?

This can also be the dogs way of marking your kids as his territory. You also might not be getting the entire smell out of the bed. You might wanna try a spot cleaner or something and kennles work wonders. Hope this helps!

Hi, I have a 2 year old black lab who I adopted from an animal shelter about 1 year and a half ago. Ever since I got her she's been having on-n-off bathroom problems. She'll go to the bathroom in the upper living room whenever she has to go because she doesn't know how to tell us if she does need to.

I have a rat terrier pekineses mix, she uses her doggy door during the day to potty, but uses the bathroom in the house at night. Why will she not use the doggy door to go outside at night. How do I teach her to do so?

My 1 1/2 year old Cairn terrier goes outside during the day to the bathroom and the last time I let him out is around 10:30P - every morning I see that he has done his business during the night in the kitchen - the last time he eats is about 5PM every day. How can I break him of this??

this is the problem I'm having so if you get any good tips please let me know. My male is 18 months. Was doing great at being house trained, and now back to overnight accidents, and he even goes out at least once through the night.
