House breaking is hard. You think you are doing everything
right until you realize that you dog fake pees just to hear you chant her name.
We were doing so well – about 1 accident a day in the house
and none at night. This seemed pretty good, then all of a sudden it’s Tiny -5,
House- 0. How is it possible that she just peed outside 20 minutes ago and yet
had what looks like an entire gallon to empty on the floor? Where does she
store all of that?!
There is one of two things going on here:
- She has self-esteem issues which are resulting in her fake peeing, just to hear me say, “Good girl, Tiny!” Maybe she was traumatized after being the last in the litter picked and needs the ego boost.
- She is too smart for her own good. Tiny Dog loves paper towels. Whenever I clean up her mess, I have to fend her off in the process. All she wants to do is attacked the wad of paper towels and rip it to shreds. Maybe she has figured out that one of her favorite “toys” only comes out when she pees in the house.
Either way, this is going to be a long process. At least
it’s hardwood, right?
