How to house train a puppy the most effective way?
I have a 5 month old Jack Russel pup who is really difficult to housetrain! She is a good dog and will respond well to simple commands - sit, paw, no etc.
But lately we are really struggeling to house train her. At first we kept her in the living room with newspapers and puppy training pads, which she used really well and only had the odd accident. Slowly we removed the newspapers and just left a training pad down. The safety gate was taken off the living room and moved to the stairs. She was doing quite well but now she will hardely use her pads and just wee or dirt wherever she likes. We have started putting her in the backgarden to try and train her to go out. We leave her out for about 10 minutes and reward her if she does something outside but she will wait until she is let back in and then go in the house! Are we confusing her by leaving a pad in the house? Should we just keep it to the garden now? Ahhh help! Personal experiance will really help? How have you trained your dog?
put her training pad behind the back door and leave it there for a couple of weeks
then put the training pad outside in the garden but close to the door so she can see it
i used to stand out in the garden with my doberman pup until he had been and then give him lots of praise for going and take him in he was really good at it he new he would make me happy and get a treat
good luck keep trying dont give up on her
