Dog Health Questions: Dog training help, indoor toilet pads.?

I'm trying to train my dog to go potty on toilet sheets, but I think she is scared to do the deed in front of me. I place her on the toilet sheets and wait until she pees on it then I give her dog cookies after she is done, the problem is she does not poo on the sheets. It is always, the 10 seconds when I am not looking that she runs somewhere not so visible and poo on the carpet. How can I fix this problem? I think she thinks pooing is bad. I do not take my dog outside for a walk because I live in an apartment and in the city. I have to work so I can't stay there for hours until she goes.

Dog Training Tips - Training Dogs For Your Own Benefit



Recommended Answer:
Why do you even own a dog if you don't have time to even take it outside to pee. Rehome the dog.

Teaching Your Dogs The Basics Of Dog Training


  • Many dogs/puppies will not poop om the same pad they peed. You have to have more then one pad laying down at a time, and where she poops lay one there. She will quickly get the idea.
    ADD: pee pads work just fine as long as your consistent and clean up after the dog. It is ridiculous for those to say the person should not own a dog because he chooses indoor training. Can't believe how ignorant people are on here.

  • Get a bag, pick up the poo and put it on the potty pad, show her that that is where it needs to go. She'll get the idea.

    However you need to find the time to get the dog outside for the fresh air and exersize. 10 minute walk each day, it's good for her and good for you. If you don't have 10 minutes, you don't have time for the dog.

  • you can buy a indoor dog loo they have them on ebay and amazon, i have bought one even though i have a large garden my little boy hates going out in the heavy rain so he has some where to go indoors (i normally use newspaper). i have also bought one for my sisters chihuahuas as one is 13 years young this year.

    have a look on youtube it shows dogs using them

  • Okay, Fred. I am totally against *wee wee pads*. I believe dogs need to urinate and defecate outside but since you think this is not an option, I suggest you pick up your feces and place them ON the pad.

    Keep doing it. She may get it.

  • you don't have time to walk your dog?
    aka you don't have time to own a dog?
    why did you get one in the first place

  • You can always buy the sprays for toilet training...if u spray on the toilet sheets...some how the dog will know where to poo or pee...just a suggestion!!
