Well, since I, like most people, have to work they have to be left while I am gone. And none of my seniors have any problems.

It can make it so in senior years, they can get weakened muscles and drip. My Dad has had that happen. \ \ /\ Alice ( ) [email protected] .( ).

Not in my house. Absolutely no pee pads in my house. I won't confuse my dogs letting them pee in the house and later reprimand them for peeing in the house. Every 2-3 hours they go outside on a leash to potty when they're in potty training. \ \ /\ Alice ( ) [email protected] .( ).

Do something w the litter box so she can't get to it - in a room behind a baby gate . The cats will get to it fine . All dogs live cat poo . Yuck Then put Piper in a puppy pen on floor - not carpet . In the kitchen maybe or behind a baby gate in the bathroom . Start small , start over . Put her food water, bed and pee pads in w her . Mop up a spot of her accidents w the pee pad so it has the scent . Hopefully she gets the idea ! Once she gets the idea she can come out for longer and longer periods if time and go back to use the pad .

She's refusing to potty train and is peeing and popping every where. Its getting to the point where I can't keep up any more. Besides her messes, my cats are reacting to HER mess by making messes themselves. So now my house is one big giant waste station. I have a toddler, I'm 5.5 months pregnant with a high risk pregnancy and a heart condition. This stress has been wearing me out and taking its toll on me. Yesterday alone I spent over 3 hours (through out the day) just cleaning pee, poop and other messes up. If it isn't dog or cat pee and poop, Piper takes poop from the litter boxes and leaves them all over. I need help in resolving this issue soon or I have have to rehome her and opt for an older Chi who is already potty trained. Tips and advise welcomed JD Sent from my Tardis
