Any idea why my 5 mo old Doberman will go 4-5 days with no accidents then jump up on the couch &amp; pee with me standing there?

Did she go into heat shortly thereafter? My 5 month old did that to me as well--went into her "season" a few weeks later.

Bring it in the house, leave the top open, and throw some Cheerios or other treats in there a few times over a few days and he should get used to it pretty quickly. Our dog had no problems at all. Hopped right in and figured out right away that he liked being more spoiled than he should be.

I just took her to this when it was about time for her to pee. I just kept at it. I also have some artificial grass out on the deck that the others use, so she uses that also. Whenever I saw her start to pee somewhere else, I would say no, and pick her up and take her to the petzoom. she finely got the hang of it. I have it on the landing of the stairs, and she will run down the stairs, use it, and run back up.....and look at me so I know she has been a good girl.

try leaving it unplugged for a little bit till the dog is drinking from it. After about two days of drinking out of plug it back in.

I have noticed a reaction with my cat as well. I've only had it for a few hours, but right now the little yappy dog next door doesn't seem to mind it. Only time will tell...

We have a lab with separation anxiety that has escaped/destroyed several other kennels. He has not been able to escape this one. He has scratched the inside of the door with his nails, but that's the only damage he's been able to do in 3 weeks.

Nope, I got my dog when she was 6 months and she was ok on her own until the dreaded chewing of cords etc. So I started crating her, she learned to crate surf so you may need to put a mat or something under the crate (I use a bath mat that has a a rubber no slip backside) it put an end to finding her in the crate in the middle of the room, LOL. THey also say for every month the dog is they can go an hour of holding it. But I wouldn't like to wait 12 hours every day to go pee so I am sure even though my dog can hold it she wouldn't like to either, but if you have no choice it comes down to what makes a safe environment for your pet and your house when you are not home. Good luck!

Our dog does not have that reaction at all. It quiets him and he just continues to enjoy the walk. Maybe your dog is allergic.

I have a similar problem with my jealous Australian Shephard. I have considered using the collar BUT, it would mean watching the dog all day until he began acting up. Are you willing to spend all your free time watching him? I'm trying to come up with a better idea.

I think our 8 yr old golden retriever was more playful a little over a month after we started using it. Make sure you are doubling the dose the 1st week or 2.

Hey Michael, I had this exact problem with my cat. He was peeing on my couch, bed, rugs, etc. He has had some slip ups since I got this litter box, but they are significantly reduced. Having this one plus my old regular litter box (which I try to shovel out every time I notice he's used it) seem to work pretty well. He seems to pee outside of the litter box most when I'm not doing as good of a job cleaning out the original box. Hope this helps! It's been really helpful for me.

It's been on my couch for months and my dog hadn't attempted to jump up when I'm home BUT I still leave it on during the day when I'm not home just as a precaution. Each dog is different though. Great product nonetheless

I definitely think it will last you a few years. My jack russells managed to jump over it easily at 6 months old so if your dog is a jumper, you might want to reconsider

Sounds to me like its a skin contact issue, If he is walking through the fence with no reaction, that would me my first guess. Check to make sure the collars are tight enough on his neck that he is receiving a correction. If he is a longer haired dog switch to the longer stainless steel posts, 9 out of 10 times it is an actual skin contact problem that is causing the issue, if you don't get anywhere with these steps please don't hesitate to call me during normal business hours, I would be more than happy to trouble shoot you over the phone 800-396-5517 we are closed for the Holiday, but will be back in on Tuesday.

This product does not keep them from going in the same spot, it just breaks it down so the smell goes away. My Border Collie whizzed the stove every time something up set him. I cleaned it every time with Anti-Icky Poo and when I finally broke him of the habit, you couldn't tell there had ever been pee in the house. I suggest you continue cleaning up with this and spray the area with some dog repellant formula (sour apple usually works well, but it depends on your dog). Or you can try to figure out what it is about that spot that makes him go there.

I have the same issue with one of my furr-babies!!! This has definitely cut back on the amount of pee on my floors and walls but I still think the walls could be about 1-2 inches taller b/c I'm still having occasional instances. IF only they'd make that extra initiative and SQUATT?!!

First, make sure the batteries are in correctly. I have had this happen too many times. I can't believe I just admitted that. Also try feeding your furbies. Put you finger in his been and rub his tongue.
