Q. My dachshund (11 months old) keeps peeing on the carpets in my bedroom. He uses puppy pads (now, before everyone starts telling me how bad puppy pads are, I already know, trust me. I never would have started him on them except that when he was very young, he was really sick and I had a common backyard with several other people who had dogs. My vet told me that he wasn't healthy enough to be able to fight off anything that these other dogs may have had, so I had no alternative to using puppy pads.) Now, he is healthy and ready to start going outside. He does pee outside if I take him out, but he is also using one pad in my bedroom and one pad in my kitchen. Since he is still learning to go outside. (Oh, he never poops outside, I dunno if that is important to help you answer my questions) Anyway, recently he has started peeing on my carpet in my bedroom, almost every day. Now, sometimes I know that he is doing it because he knows that I am in the next room playing with my tortoise and/or hamsters and he gets jealous. But most of the time, he will just pee on the carpet right in front of me! (How rude!)
Anyways, now that you know some background, maybe you can help!
How do I get him to stop peeing on the carpet?
What is a really good stain/odor remover?
How can I get him to poop outside as well as pee?
Any other suggestions/tips would be greatly appreciated as well!
Thanks so much!
Oh, and just so you know... He was 100% trained to use the pads before a few weeks ago when he started this carpet peeing. So the problem isn't that he was never trained where to go. He always used the pads before!
Thanks again for any help!

House Training
House training your dog is simple if you follow a few basic rules. Remember that puppies younger than 10 to 12 weeks have little control. Accidents will always happen when teaching puppies to be clean in the house. Be kind and patient, and reward handsomely all outdoor elimination. Always remember that dogs do what works for them. Make outdoor pottying work really well for your puppy.
1) The puppy must have NO time unsupervised in your home. NONE. If you are not directly watching the puppy, it should be in the crate, or outside in a safe area. You MUST watch the puppy at ALL times when loose in the house. Use baby gates, crates, or tie the leash to your belt.
2) The puppy should sleep inside the crate by your bedside. This way you can hear if the puppy should happen to need to go out during the night.
3) You must go WITH the puppy outside for ALL trips for elimination. You must have treats with you. When the puppy is urinating, say "GO PEE PEE" in a nice praise tone of voice the entire time. When she is finished, pop the treat into her mouth at once, and praise praise praise. This should be something she gets at no other time, like tiny pieces of string cheese or boiled chicken. Same for defecation. Say "GO POOP" while she is going, and food reward and praise afterwards. You must observe and reward ALL outdoor potty time.
4) Keep a schedule. Feed at the same time, and walk outside at the same times. Your pup needs at least 4 trips outdoors each day, and 5 is probably better. Pup needs to go out at wake up time, lunch time, 4-5 PM, after dinner or any other meals, and before bed. Younger puppies may need to go out much more often.
5) Use a key word each time you go out. I say "Let's go out!!" in a happy tone of voice each time I'm opening the door to go out with the dog.
6) If you catch the puppy IN THE ACT of eliminating in your house, CLAP YOUR HANDS, say AH AH, OUTSIDE!! And immediately rush her outside. If she finishes there, do your usual food reward and praise.
The keys to getting your dog reliably housetrained are:
SUPERVISION: NO loose time in the house if you are not watching
REWARDS: ALL outdoor elimination MUST be observed and rewarded. If you only do this ONE thing, your puppy will get housetrained.
PATIENCE: Anger and punishment have no place in dog training. Elimination is a natural and pleasurable experience for your dog. You can teach her to not soil your house, but punishment will NOT help. It will only teach the dog to hide when she needs to eliminate.
If you have applied these techniques carefully for 4 weeks and you are still finding spots or piles after the fact, it's time for stronger measures. Roll up a newspaper and fasten both ends with a rubber band. Keep it handy. The very next time you find a spot of a pile that the dog has left behind, whip out that newspaper, and hit YOURSELF over the head firmly several times as you repeat "I FORGOT TO WATCH MY PUPPY".
Works every time.
