How do you toilet train a dog when you're in work all day?
I have Sparky in a crate at night & he goes toilet on a puppy pad which is fine. The first 2 weeks we had him I left him in his crate during the day & again he would go on the puppy pad. Yesterday for the first time I left him in the kitchen with Cassie & put a puppy pad donw for him to use but instead he did a couple of poo's round the kitchen (mainly under the table) & then ran through them so my kitchen was manky!!
He is very good when we are there & will ask at the back door if it's closed or will just go out himself if the door is open.
I thought of getting some drops I saw on the net that are meant to encourage them to go in a certain place & put the drops on the puppy pad,but I'm not sure this will work.
Any ideas?
