Hello, everyone. I have a 10 week old mini doxie puppy, George and I'm having some issues with him being alone. I realize he is still a baby and not used to being by himself (I've only had him a week), but I really need some advice. George will cry and cry if he is in his pen/crate and I am out of sight. What's worse is I live in an apartment, ( Read more... )

Hi guys! My 12.5 week old puppy, Lola, is getting there with house training, but still having an issue. Basically, she knows not to go in her crate and can make it about 6 hours at night, but has to go out every 1-2 hours during the day or will pee in the house.

hey all, it's me again, the one with the slow-go crate training with the little maltepoo with separation anxiety. I have implemented some of your advice, the dog trainer's advice, the internet's advice, AND my friends advice.

Recently, my boyfriend and I decided that our older dog, Izzy, was well behaved enough that she doesn't have to be crated any time we leave, just if we're leaving for extended periods of time, like when we leave for work for the day. While the new guy, Ollie, doesn't chew and doesn't seem inclined to get into trouble, he does still pee inside ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm having some serious trouble housetraining my 9 month old lab mix. He is not reliable in asking to go out, or his signals aren't clear enough. Other times he won't ask at all, and will just go to the bathroom on the floor in front of us. He also tends to run down the hall out of sight and use the bathroom in my bedroom or the hallway ( Read more... )
