[QUOTE="Kelle, post: 2065349, member: 452309"] Training a dog . of any age, to go outside is initially very time consuming. that is why so many don't get trained. A dog is a creature of habit. Whatever it does over and over again becomes a habit for the dog. So how do you make going outside a habit? You take it outside every hour until the dog starts showing you in some way that it wants to go outside. How long this takes depends on the dog. I take mine to the same spot outside where he smells the pee. I say ' "hurry up" - or some cue word Now, whenever I say ' Hurry up ", he goes. There may sometimes when dog comes in and pees - especially in the winter_ but you stick to the plan. The plan sometimes fails because owners are in too big a hurry to get inside. Walking fast down a block will also cause a dog to poo/pee. [/QUOTE]
