As you people all know i got a dog a while back. Everything is good (hes the best boy), but hes still having trouble potty training. Theres one spot in my room that he thinks is his bathroom.
I have started crating him at night, and restricting access to my room during the day. I also have boiled chicken that i give him as a treat when he goes outside. He was doing really good, and then had 2 accidents in the last 2 days. I'm also tracking his habits on a spreadsheet to try and get some sort of pattern down. All accidents are cleaned up with Rocco and Roxie enzymatic carpet cleaner.
I'm genuinely confused, as I just found a pee spot but he has been with me all day. Th onbly thing i can think is that sometimes in the morning ill let him in bed after he goes out, since he's empty. He may be sneaking out of the bed to go pee.
I'm at my wits end... I feel like im doing the right things, but he doesnt seem to be getting it. Part of it is that he had never been outside of an apt before the SPCA got him, so in his mind carpet IS where he's supposed to go. He's smart in other aspects... I taught him to sit and a few other tricks relatively easily. Am i missing something?
