New Shepherd parents

by New Shepherd parents on 20 November 2012 - 01:11

Our GSD puppy has been doing so well with house breaking.  However, the past few days (about twice each day) he has been urinating in the house.  We have bought some Nature's Miracle 3-in-1 Odor Destroyer to spray after we clean it up.  My question is, what can we do to deter him from urinating on the floor these couple times a day? And does this spray work?  If not, then is there something that works better??

Put him on a leash and tether him to you. If he starts to go, you can immediately correct him, scoop him up (if he's small enough), take
him outside, and let him finish. Praise like heck. Potty training is basically puppy time management. If he is starting to have accidents,
then try taking him out more often.

how old is your new puppy?  he should not ever be out of your sight or roaming the house without you home if he is not house trained.  age of ppuppy will help get the best answers to your question. 

I keep natures miracle int eh house for everythign from pee to vomit to blood to wine to cleaning crates ....  I just use the original and follow the instructions on use for clean up and checking for odor and retreating if necessary.

Hi there,,I agree with the above posts,,Attach him to your side using his leash.

My current male needed to be at my side or he would do the same thing..They are fast little boogers ...He really needs to be with you and not left unattended.

When you catch him squatting to urinate I would tell him no and carry him out into his pen immediately and set him down and say "lets potty",,and praise him like crazy!!

Good luck..

Darcy, he is 9 weeks today.  I'm going to start keeping him on the leash inside.  He doesn't have a own, but I do tell him no and we bring him outside and tell him to go potty.  I am always telling him "good boy" and he gets a treat when he goes to the bathroom.  One treat for each "number".  He is a happy, playful pup and was doing so well, going to the door when he needed to go out and then bam! All of a sudden he was peeing on the carpet.  Could it be that he is playing too much with my daughters and is like a toddler, "forgets" to go to the bathroom because he is having fun?

Don't expect to much from a 9 week old pup. You are going to still have accidents. At that age, you still have to think,"and act" for him.
As soon as he slows down at the playing, YOU. Have got to bring him out.As soon as he wakes up-OUT, as soon as he is done eating-OUT,
The operative word here is "As Soon As"

if you want to think of it like a toddler forgetting that will work.   It is more a matter of bladder size, bladder control, and hasn't yet learned.  exercies, moving about makes you go.  it feels good to this little guy to go wherever it may be and it HAS to be better for him to go outside where you want him to.   at 9 weeks of age, you need to be on him like white on rice and not expect your children to see the signs of him getting ready to go potty.

You can also limit his play area with baby gates. I like 'Get Serious' over Natures Miracle. It costs more but I think it works better.
