MD....the trick is....before and after he eats.....also....5 mins after he drinks water take him out.....males for some reason p alot more then females...Every time he drinks water....5 mins...i know it sounds like alot..but he has to learn and associate peeing with outside...and remember before and after you let him in and out of the crate...you have to get this dog on a Schedule......Honkers41!! And also usethe command PP before you take him out of the crate and praise him when he's finished..!!
"FEETDOWN~GUNS~UP"!!~~~
you said it all..i used to see my lab start to sniff or make circle, i would grab him,turn him upside dow n and say OUTSIDE, OUTSIDE..
DID THIS ABOUT 2 WEEKS, NOW HE STARES AT ME, I SAY outside AND HE RUNS FOR DOOR..
many times at 2 am i was outside the first 4 weeks after age 7 weeks to pee or poo at 10 above zero..i stood out there for 30 minutes until he did his thing..
