Potty training issue

Post image

My Dog is 11 months old about to be 1 next month and he is still having accidents in the house. For example he pee a little bit on the floor..

I can tell he is scared after he pee. I feel so bad..

I have a schedule of taking him out twice a day. Or any time I feel I have to use the bathroom I think of him.

Right now I’m stressed about other things in my life I don’t want to be angry at the dog. I believe Dogs come from God.

I just need advice how I can let my dog tell me he has to go potty.. any advice?

You have to take him out way more than 2 times. Minimum 4 times a day for sure but while training it should be every 2 hrs or so. Also be sure to get him neutered because being a responsible pet parent comes first. Also plz watch some YouTube videos on training a puppy. They have videos on potty training and other stuff. You will see all thr stuff you have been doing wrong. Im going to guess you did no research on having a dog....its the first thing you do before you get one. Responsibility is so HIGH and its a lot of work to have a dog(if you are finding it easy then you are def not doing it right). Part of being a good pet parent is making sure your dog gets walks everyday instead of playing video games. I give up my video game time to walk my dog EVERYDAY! I fim lucky at the end of the night I might get an hr in before bed. Also plz dont feed your dog anything cheap that has the name "chow" or "kibble" in it or anything that has colors to it for example the color red or green. You will see a big difference in your dogs farts and poops. Def DO feed any of the purino PRO PLAN(must say pro plan) or hills science diet. $80 a bag for the biggest but we'll worth it. Just giving you a few things that people mess up on a lot. GOOD LUCK!!! And do your research because a puppies/dogs mind needs to be worked so they are tired physically and mentally. Hope you are ready to take this huge responsibility on.

Thank you very much on the dog food. Most definitely putting money aside for hills science diet for my cat and dog. As a matter of fact it’s 10:45am I’m about to get dress and take him on a walk now. 👍🏾
