I have a 5 month old Shorkie. She has been crate trained for 6 weeks now – no accidents. She is also 100% trained to go potty every time I take her to her area in the backyard. The problem is she pees in the house every time she is out of her crate for even a minute, even if she has just gone pee outside. I’ve had her since July and she has basically been in her crate or outside. I thought I would let her out of the crate for a few minutes and build up the time but she has never gotten beyond the 5-10 min mark before peeing inside. I only let her roam the house if she has peed outside. Any thoughts?

Hey all, next week we are adopting a 7 month old lurcher cross girl from our local shelter. She is super sweet and intelligent but has lived in kennels for a while so isn’t housetrained or anything like that. I have been watching lots of YouTube videos about training etc. but any advice, tips and tricks from those who have “been through it” would be more than appreciated!

I have a new 10 week old shih tzu. She's spunky and tiny. My son paid alot of💰for this 'replacement' companion for me & I fear that I will sleep to heavy & not hear her in distress, etc… I'm 15 yrs older now & much more set in my ways since I last had a newborn puppy!! Fatigue is a real thing. I need a times in and out type schedule idea that has worked for any of you guys…Please & Thanks I need some rest🐶😫
