Poop indoors...

ive another situation not my bitch but the fathers pitbull he came from a neglected house old not proven but seems so anyway the father feeds him openly (bowl of food and water there all day) and takes it away at 6 or 7 walks the dog at 9 but we can guarantee every morning to find a big blob of dog poop on the floor any advice ?

Has your father done any sort of house training at all? If so, what has he done?

I wouldn't leave food there all day for him to graze - you have no idea that way when he had the last bit of food & therefore when he's likely to want to relieve himself.

If he's going out at 9pm (I hope that isn't the only walk?) then anything he's had to eat from about mid day won't be ready to leave his system, but it will be ready to leave at about midnight or later! If that's the case, he's got a long wait until the morning & probably can't hold it.

Personally, I'd put half his food down in the morning, about an hour or so after his morning walk, then take him for a walk about 4 or 5pm and feed the other half at about 7 or 8pm. Then maybe a short walk just before bed time.

normally he gets a walk at half 7-8 when he wakes up a walk at 3 or 4 a walk at 7 small out for a * and then out for a walk at 9 or whenever

I think the problem here may well be the food being left down all day - he can graze as and when he likes. If you feed structured meal times you'll get structured poo times!

So, feeding at 9am and 5pm will probably give you poos at around 9pm and 7am.

I'm with Caryll, I'd stop the free feeding then if that doesn't work, just go back to basic toilet training (praise and treat when he goes outside)

Where does he sleep? Lola gets up every night about 3am to go to the loo. She sleeps in her cage in our room so we hear her cry for the loo and have to get up and let her out. It's a bit annoying but it's just how her body works. Maybe your Dad's dog is like Lola and if he sleeps downstairs nobody would hear him crying to be out.
