Q. I have a small dog (yorkie) she is 7-8 months old and she keeps peeing and pooping on our area rug. I take her outside and she does her business..if she refuses to do her business, then we put her in the dog kennel for an hour and take her out again.
Ok, so my questions are:
A.) How can I get the pee stains out of the area rug. ( The underside of the rug has multiple pee spots.) I have used resolve and Folex to keep the smell away and keep the top side clean. I just can't stand knowing that there is pee stains on the canvas side of the rug.
B.) Is there something we can buy to keep her from using the rug as a bathroom area? I feel bad keeping her in her cage so much, but I just can't have her going to the bathroom on the rug anymore. Plus it is not sanitary what-so-ever.

Answer
But a pet deodorizor, you are probably not getting the scent out. Make sure you watch her 24/7. If you catch her peeing on the rug, say ah ha, pick her up and take her outside. Also, if you do not like her being int he crate all the time (which she proabably doesnt mind) take a leash, and tie it to your belt loop, so that you can keep an eye on her, and so she cant wonder off. Below are some crate training, and house training tips, that i put together!
Below are House Training, and Crate Training Tips.
Crate Training
__________________
Try locking her in a kennel or crate, or "doggie safe area" for a few minutes, while you go do something. Make sure to do the "Crate Process every time she goes in her crate.
"Crate Process"
1. Put Dog in kennel, crate or "doggie safe area"
2. Give treats and a toy
3. Leave
4. When you come back, give her lots of praise, and treats. (Also, use the clicker if you are clicker training)
Leave her out, of her kennel "doggie safe area"or crate for an hour, then put her in for 30 minutes, Repeating the "Crate Process.(steps 1-3)" Then again, when you come back do step 4.
Repeat slowly extending the time, and make sure you leave time between kennel times, to spend with your puppy. Never expect your puppy to stay in his kennel longer than the age he is in months plus one. (example, if your puppy is 5 months old, only leave it in there for 6 hours. No dog/puppy should stay in it's kennel longer than 7-8 hours.
This is what i mean by "doggie safe area".
If you are going to be gone longer than a few hours, either have a dog sitter come to your house mid-day to walk him, or block off your bathroom, kitchen, hall, or other place with tile or wood floors for her to stay in while you are away. Leave food, water, toys, his kennel or crate, and puppy pads or newspapers(unless you want potty on the floor)
Let the puppy sleep in his/her crate at night, unless you want an adult large dog sleeping in your bed at night. Even if your dog whimpers in the crate, just ignore her/him until he stops. Do not remove the puppy from the crate when he whimpers, or he will learn that this is how to get out.
I Really Hope this helped.
House Training
_____________
First and foremost, do not make the dog smell his mess, strike him or lock him ouside. This will just confuse the pup, and it might be afraid of you.
I have just got a puppy recently. The way I trained him was crate training. Here's a few tips on crate training and house training:
1.Try to teach them that their crate is a good place. Reward them when you place them in the crate. This is teaching them, that a treat comes with good crate behavior. Always keep your dog in the crate, unless you can keep a good eye on him.
2. Another option, if you do not want to place your dog in the kennel all of the time, hook his leash to your belt loop, this way he can not go off and use the restroom somewhere, and you don't know about it.
3.Always take him outside after;
+ rough play
+after he eats or drinks
+after being let out of his crate
+ after he wakes up after a night
+ or if he shows signs of having to use the restroom,(below are those signs)
*sniffing
*staring at you
*whining
4.Don't ever hit your dog, or rub his nose in his mess. This will just teach the dog to be afraid of you.
5.Don't feed him or give him to much water, before you plan to put him in his cage.
6.Don't expect your dog to hold it's restroom, more than the age of the dog in months, plus one. But no dog should have to hold it's bladder more than a 7-8 hours.
7.Be patient!! That is the key, to housetraining. Of course if you get too overwelmed, you can always buy a book, or ask a professional trainer!
8.Always, when he goes to the bathroom ouside, give lots of praise and treats!!
9. If you expect your puppy to go outside, and dont use puppy pads when he gets older, starting out with puppy pads, is not a good idea, because this trains them that it's ok to go inside, and then before they know it, they cant, it is to confusing for them.
10. Make sure to have a schedule,
Good Luck!

Crates: Dog/puppy abuse?
Gypsy Wolf
Why is swatting a dog on the nose or rear end for misbehaving considered abuse, but stuffing your dog in a crate for hours at a time considered a great thing? At least the swat only lasts a second and it does teach the dog not to chew things, get into the garbage or go potty in the house. Leaving your dog in a crate while you're at work all day just seems so mean, dogs need to move around and play. Not lay around in an over sized Tupperware container. So, why isn't it considered abuse?
If swatting a dog's nose doesn't teach them anything then are all my dogs house trained, and for the most part stay out of the garbage? I don't beat my dogs, but if they misbehave and I catch them I swat their nose or rear end then toss them into the backyard.
The only dog in my house that hasn't had their nose or rear end swatted is our mastiff/lab and that's because the people who owned her before us actually abused her. Our dogs are well behaved, not go potty in the house, don't get into the garbage or chew things. All of our dogs (and cats) either sleep in my parents' bed, my brother's bed or my bed with us. So really, the whole den thing doesn't really work. My dog would freak if she couldn't sleep in a bed.
Where's the proof that swatting a dog's nose or rear end only instills fear? Every dog I know has had their rear end or nose swatted and they're lovable as all get out. My dogs know that if they go potty in the house, get into the garbage, or chew up something they'll get swatted and so they don't.
If you don't want your dog in the cabinets, then lock the cabinets. All electrical cords in my house are behind chairs and the entertainment center so the dogs can't reach them. No one has really given a good, valid reason why it's okay to crate a dog.
Dog-proofing a house is easy. Lock the cabinets, cover electrical cords, shut the garbage cans. It's things you'd do for a child, and people don't (or normal people don't) put their kids in crates "to protect them."
Answer
It's because the people who put them in the crates 24/7 are too lazy to actually take care of a dog. It's just for show, to them.
Or any other animal, for that matter.
It's like the people who bring dark-haired animals to the shelter because you can see their fur on their white couch.
Don't get a pet if you can't/won't clean up puke or a bathroom accident once in a while, or vacuum up fur, brush them, walk them, etc, etc.
You don't go to the bathroom at a scheduled time each day, so why should they?
Yes, crate/cage training a puppy is fine. As long as you have the biggest one you can get, it's a good way of training them. But when that dog is 3 years old and you shove him in a cage for hours on end like people who host dog fights do, you have a serious problem and that animal is better off in a home where people will actually take care of him.
As far as my knowledge goes, my dog was never in a cage except when we adopted him from the shelter. There is no reason what-so-ever for him to be moved into one. When he sleeps, he's on the couch, on the floor by the door, on his big 'ole dog bed, on one of our beds, or anything laying on the floor (pillows, blankets, beanbag, etc).
