Are Some Dogs Just Not Able To Be Housebroken?
Filed under Care & Training Q&As
I cannot seem to train my 11 mo old cockapoo….I take her outside in my fenced in back yard at least every other hour….she is able to hold it when she is in the gated kitchen 6 hours or more; however, despite the fact that I take her out frequently – she almost always comes in the house to poop . I have rewarded her at the times that she will go outside but it doesnt seem to matter….Today, I took her outside and kept repeating as I always do..”go pooop” but she doesnt , 20 min later after we come in she will then go in the living room — I have had to pick up all my rugs, etc…I use Miracle Cure to dissolve t he smell but nothing seems to work. Are some dogs just not able to be trained. I am sooooo stressed out over this. I have also tried attaching her to a leash and catching her in the act but it doesnt seem to stop her the next time from going in the house. I am seriously thinking of giving her up however, I would feel terrible. I dont know what else to do What am I doing wrong?? I cant live like this. This has been going on since she was 4 mos. old…Please help!
Therapy Dogs – New Jersey?
Filed under Care & Training Q&As
I recently adopted a cockapoo puppy, he’s 4 months old. He has a great temperament, intelligent and really affectionate, not overly aggressive. I think he would make a good candidate for a therapy dog. I am interested in learning more about the training of therapy dogs. I live in Morris County NJ and am interested in becoming involved in a Therapy Dog Group. Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank You!
Why Do My Dogs Do This?
Filed under Care & Training Q&As
I have a black lab who is 2 years old and a cockapoo that is 1 and 1/2 years old. Everytime we leave them out of there cages in the kitchen the lab will jump up and get mail or anything off the counter and chew it up. The cockapoo isn’t as bad but will tear up the stuff once it it down on the ground. The reason why I don’t understand this is because both dogs are trained and it only happens when noone is home. Why do they do this? They know its wrong.
