Hey guys I'm posting this here because if we don't get this under control, it may affect Roxy's health when my hubby sets her on the curb.
We're having one hell of a time with Roxy and housebreaking. I don't remember King being this difficult so maybe it's a girl thing? I dont' know but its making me nuts and making my hubby REALLY nuts.
The wet spots I think we've gotten under control. She had a bladder infection and has been on meds for about a week and that really has pretty much eliminated the peeing in the house. The big problem we're having though is her pooping in the house. I've literally walked her for an hour and she'll pee pee pee, but no poop. Come in the house and BAM upstairs in a dark corner and there's poop. The last few days I've had her hooked to me by leash in the evening so she can't run off. Last night, I was loading the dishwasher and she got away from me for seriously less than 2 minutes. AND SHE POOPED ON THE STAIRS.
Any tips on how I can get her to poop outside? I don't know what the issue is. Whenever she pees outside I give her lots of praise and little treats but if I can't get her to poop out there I can't praise her. AND, she knows it's bad because as I'm cleaning it up she's got her head tucked down and her little sorry face on.
HELP!!
