House Training

When your staffy was a pup how did u house train him ore she?

I house train the normal way, take outsid when they wake up, before and after being fed, and with pups, every 30 to 45 minutes in between. have to take them out so I can see if they have done something then I can give lots of praise.

I don't like paper training because you have to re-train them to go outside.

ye id be the same.. every half hour or so i keep repeatind(wana do wees) and seems to work. my staff was done in aweek but my rotty is taking for ever to get it. im sick of it at dis stage. she is nearly 15 weeks and still making mistakes

The bigger the dog the longer it takes for them to mature, your Staffy would have had the bladder control a lot earlier than your Rottie. Bit like babies, they can't be clean and dry until their bladder has developed enough.

When you have been trying to train them for a few weeks, we sometimes are not as consistant because of the time it is taking, have a good look at this, you may find that you are letting things slip a bit. Been there myself

ye tink u may be rite... another thing i noticed is she pisses everywhere wen she first sees me in the mornin and the same wen i com home from work????

I bet you make a big fuss of her when you get up and come in from work

ah ye youhave to dont you. i know itsbetter if you dont but i cant help myself.>:s<

If you want to stop her pissing you will have to stop making a fuss as soon as you walk in. The length of time to take your coat of will be enough and it is also good manners on your dog's part to wait until your coat is off.

You could always get yourself another 2 or 3 dogs, you will have to wait until your coat is off them

Yeah exactly the same, its such a good feeling when u have cracked it x

we did paper train but he picked up on the times we were taking him out so didnt take long for him to be fully house trained. well apart from the chewing lol

Scheduled ! Within two weeks he was trained mostly once he peed then he squated to pee and by himself he decided against it and went to the back door! He is 16weeks now and hasnt peed in weeks:) . x

shadow had mastered the art off wee wee,s outside with in a week ,shes only had the one accident in her crate , but that was from a poorly upset tum she couldnt help it, shes now 14 months and hasnt gone backwards yet lol

We used crate and then scheduled training in the garden for both of ours - very pleased with the results too - seemed to learn very quick indeed

i paper trained and i gradually moved the pad nearer and nearer to the door and now this is how he asks to go to the loo by waiting by the door in all it took about 1 and a half weeks

Scheduled base training

We paper trined molly as that was what everyone suggested when we got her, but when we had Jack we gave the paper a miss as it took ages to retrain molly to go outside - Jacks house training was much quicker as we just let him out on a much more regular basis - he's had much fewer accidents than Molly used to

we just let nancy out often, she was house trained fairly quickly this way.
