I need help house training my dog! Please!?

Cayla

My dog, a mini wiener dog, that my boyfriend and I inherited from his mother and father who have both passed will not go to the bathroom outside! We have tried everything and I'm exhausted. We now kennel her at night and she will actually void herself in her own bed and sleep in it! I am no dog expert but I know that that is not normal. We feed and giver her water at scheduled times and let her outside very often. She will literally hold it all day and then wait till we go to bed and urinate/poop in her caged in area or her own bed. The dog was originally his mothers and she got breast cancer and passed so the dog lived with his dad who just recently passed from leukemia. His father never trained her to go outside and had no issue with her going in the house. She is 8 yrs old now. I do not want to have to get rid of her but I have a 4 yr old and she is kind of aggressive towards kids as well. My boyfriend feels as though she has a lot of sentimental value also. Is there any hope?

I have a dachshund and it only took me a couple days to house train him when i got him at 2 months old...it's not always the breed that is "difficult" to train...depends on the dog and owner, not the breed...treats worked well with him. i never rubbed his nose in it when he had an accident and never smacked him when he had an accident...just told him no firmly and put him outside for a few minutes. after he ate or drank or woke up, i would take him out until he pottied...even if it took an hour. then he'd get a lot of praise and a treat...just be patient with her, she'll get it...

i've never had kid aggression problems with my dogs, so i'm not 100% sure on that training...

but you need to give the dog time to adjust to the change...she's also grieving from the loss of her owners. it may take awhile for her but just be there for her...just like people when they're grieving, animals need their own time to grieve as well...good luck with her! i LOVE dachshunds, great little dogs!!

How Can I Get My 3 Dogs To Stop Peeing Everywhere In The House?

TF141

So I have 2 dogs and the oldest is around 2years old the other two are around 1 and a half. Anyways they have started to pee everywhere around the house and I think they are just marking there territory. They weren't like this though and I don't know why they have started too. They are all males and none of them are neutered. Any help?

Answer
That's wrong a kennel is not for punishment it's for peace and comfort. No you have to kennel train your pups. Dogs won't potty where the sleep get a kennel that is big enough for them to lay down and turn that's it. If you get it too big for them they will go in it. But train them to stay in their kennel and let them out every now and then and go straight outside to go to the bathroom after 6 weeks they will know to go only outside
