my little puppers is almost 6 months old. I swear the first three weeks she was home were horrendous. she peed and pooped everywhere in the house. I about had it after the first month. she never understood when/where to go outside, so I resorted to pee pads.
she got it almost instantly. the pee pads were always in one place of the house, in front of the front door. also, we kept saying “go potty!” and gave lots and lots of treats. if she missed, we would catch her immediately and put her in her crate.
after two months of that, we took her outside & since she knew what the word potty meant, she started going consistently.
just sharing my different approach to any desperate puppy parents. it gets so much better!!!
