Does anyone know why it is so diffcult to potty train this certain type of dog?? I have been researching for some time now, but cannot find any results. And any tips on doing so?? Thanks in Advance!!
It’s not the breed. That’s just a common excuse for novice pet owners.
Tips.
1. Have a designated "potty-place" in your yard.
2. Whenever you take the dog out (if puppy, once an hour), go to this place and say a command, like "Do your business!"
3. If he goes, praise him exuberantly, give him a treat or two, then take him on at least a short walk.
4. If he doesn’t, pop him back in his crate (you do have one, right?) and try again in half an hour.
5. Never yell, hit, or punish a dog for going inside. It’s your fault, not his!
6. His crate should be just big enough for him to turn around and lay down in, no bigger. If it is bigger, he can just eliminate in one end and sleep in the other.
If it is a boy it wiil pee all over trust me bin there done that!! U will need to get it newtured!!

Always the magic bullet with a Schipp.
Something yummy..a bowl of boiled chicken bits(organic please!!!!)
kept in the fridge.
Let him know that the bowl is there and that it comes out when he is to go outside.
Eventually he will never let you forget the bowl is there.
IMMEDIATELY give chicken bit after he does his thing.
If he has accident carry him outside and bring the bowl.
Let him smell the bowl but no treat.
Patience will pay off.
Schipps are smarter than we are…
Once he gets it he will get it.
