How do you stop my mauture dog from peeing on carpet?

Answer 1

• I've done this many times and it has worked when other ideas didn't. It works best for puppies that you find "in the act". You gently but firmly grab them by the scruf of their neck and give them a little side to side shake while growling in a low voice. I read this somewhere how puppies instantly know what they did was wrong because that is the way their mother reacted to something they did that was wrong. Remember their mother never spanked them, yelled at them, or rubbed their nose in anything.
• You should NOT rub your dog's nose in it's pee. It won't understand what you're doing (they surely could care less if they have to smell their own urine), especially if you didn't catch them in the act. If you don't catch them while they're going, there isn't much you can do about it. You simply have to work on prevention. Take your dog outside/to the area you want them to go to the bathroom after they wake up, after they eat, and after they play. This way they will have enough chances to go and they won't NEED to go to the bathroom on the carpet. If you DO catch them as they're going on the carpet, scold them, then relocate them to the area that you want them to go to the bathroom in as soon as possible. Be consistent, your dog will soon learn to follow a routine and accidents should happen less often (or never). You will probably need to keep doing this with a puppy or newly trained dog for a while (taking them out periodically). Don't expect them to tell you when they need to go outside to go to the bathroom, puppies won't/can't do this until about 4 or 5 months of age and training. *side note* make sure you clean up where they have gone on the carpet thoroughly. If they smell their urine somewhere they will be likely to go there again. Every pet store sells great products for cleaning up pet stains.

Answer 2

take the dog outside about every two hours. that way the dog will understand where it needs to poop. then after about a week take the dog out every four hours. by that time the dog should understand where it need to go number 2. at that point ease the dog into a routine. ex. take dog out whenyou wake up, before you go to work, as soon as your home from work and before you go to bed. about every six hours or so

Answer 3

get a doghouse and make it live outside

on offence but that is a horrible answer. all you have to do is potty train the dog or bell train him so that when they ring the bell you can let them outside. i hope that helped. (katiema10)

Let me add: Do you have a male dog that comes by and soils the sofa? If so, this dog could be marking territory.

Put the dog on a training line and you hold the other end, walk the dog by the area, as soon as the dog lifts its leg, yank on the leash and release the tension quickly, and command NO. Now, leave the line on the dog, you hold the other end, EVERYDAY.... and if you see him go there correct him as above mentioned. You will need to clean the sofa with an enzyme to remove the odor left behind.

Answer 4

Walk them more, especially about 20.min after meals or a good big drink of water. Praise like crazy when they pee outside. My dog is always excited to poop outside,as she knows this will get her a bacon treat.Don't leave water down overnight.

Answer 5

if i was you i would train him if not, try taking an old carpet to the backyard and see if he pee on it. If that does not work take the carpet that he pees on in the backyard and buy a new one.

Answer 7

If it is a young puppy, put pee pads around corners, and tight spaces or wherever you're dog frequently wees' at. If it is an adult, I think you should let them outside, alot, if you have a fenced yard, take them for many walks, (Every morning, noon, around sunset etc.)and feed them just enough, (dont give them too much water that increases the peeing.) If they go wee somewhere on carpet, clap and calmly say, "no" to them, the more you do it, the more obedient they become.

Easy~

Answer 8

You can teach it tricks.If that doesn't work,you'll have to come on here and ask again.Then maybe we will have the answer.

Answer 9

Keep him outside or-

Push his face near the pee say no then throw him outside. Keep a close eye on him when hes inside so you can scare him if he starts to pee.
