    Full Kennel Training

    Hey guys, I have now begun full kennel training in which Tasha is being confined for 3-4 hour periods inside of her kennel and I have now eliminated the newspapers on the bathroom floor. It seems to be going well so far... she hasn't messed in the kennel nor has she destroyed her...

    Puppy Confinement

    Hey guys! Just a bit of a question for some of the experts here. Tasha is a 15 week old Daschund/Chihuahua cross and has been coming along very well. Outside of the periods when she is penned up in our bathroom while no one is home, she is peeing/etc outside and doing well with that...

    HELP! - Puppy refuses to potty outdoors!

    I've had my daschund/chihuahua pup for 3 days now and I have probably made about 50 trips with her outside from early in the morning to very late at night, and she simply refuses to relieve herself outside... I've even taken the papers she's used inside and placed them on my porch very close...
