Problems in Potty Training

[lizbud]

Our new puppy Ollie doesn't like to go outside so hes does his buisness in the house. Every time he does it, we put him outside and then he just scratches at the window. How do we get him to go potty without going in the house and without using a crate?

The trick is to take him out before he pees, not after.I really think if you go outside with your dog when he's first learning & give the command to
go potty, then praise like mad, they seem to unnderstand what you are asking
of them. You have to be very proactive during the training phase.

thats what we're doing. Only he pees and poos without us knowing or we'll see him in the process of it and the put him outside
