Our dog will not potty train!?

Our dog will not potty train!?

We adopted him when he was six months old and started potty training right away.
We have had him for around six months and he still pees in the house!
I feel like we have tried every method out there as well as scent eliminating cleaners and sprays.
He knows he is being bad because he hides under the bed after he does it.
Does anyone have any advice?

    Have you had a full work up done at the vet? A lot of times issues like this are caused by medical issues such as bladder infections etc.
    If you have and everything is clear then I recommend crate training and consistency. A rigorous schedule is often best for cases like this. Set your alarm and make sure you take him out at the same set times every day. He should be in the crate when he is not being watched or not outside. Of course this is only a method for those who actually spend time with their dogs. He shouldnt be left in there for hours upon hours on end. Every time you take him out of the crate you take him directly outside and DO NOT let him inside until he has gone to the bathroom. eventually he will get the hint and as he gets better you can give him more inside free time even without supervision eventually.

    Wen i first got my dog she was about four months old, she too had this problem, but in about 3months or so she learned to go outside.
    Make sure u are walking her regularly, at first it will seem that it makes no difference because still goes in the house, but in time he will catch up to your routine. Make sure you walk him near da same times everyday (this is very important!) Just be patient.
    If this doesnt work,seek a vet,bcuz he may have a medical problem
    Hope this was useful =)

    just keep trying and maybe leave wee wee pads around the house for him, patience is the best tool with potty training :)

    Neuter him. Keep him in a crate and only take him out to go outside. If he doesnt go outside tell him he's bad and put him back in the crate. When he goes outside tell him he's good and let him run around the house. Let him free for a while, then put him back in the crate. Repeat the action until he no longer goes inside.

    Crate's arent mean. Most dogs love their crates.

    take him out at least once every hour or two, and praise him with treats and like clap and pet him and make a big deal everytime he goes potty outside. if he goes potty inside, give him a spanking(not hard enough to seriously hurt him, just slightly harder than a pat) and yell at him. it seems hes starting to learn since he hides under the bed after he does it, so just stick to this and soon enough he'll get really good at it.
    my dog took about 6 or 7 months to almost completely stop having accidents in the house, and now she scratches on the door and barks when she has to go out.
    once your dog gets really good at potty training, he'll let you know when he needs to go out.

    First, make sure he is getting plenty of exercise.
    Second, set up a feeding schedule for him. Feed him at the same time every day. This will help him go potty at the same time every day. Pick up his water about an hour after his last meal of the day. (this will cut down on the need to pee at night)
    Third, You need to set up a potty schedule for him. I would start with taking him out every 1 to 2 hours for the first week. Encourage him when he goes potty outside, and as hard as it is, ignore him when he goes inside. Do not give any attention at all when he goes where he isn't supposed to.
    After about a week of being diligent with taking him out every 1 to 2 hours you should start to see a pattern as to when he is going and you can adjust your schedule as needed.
    When you are not home (if he does not have access to the out doors) or when you are sleeping, Place his bedding in a small area. Like a hall or bathroom. (the smaller the space, the less likely he is to eliminate-they don't like sitting in their own mess), but don't leave them there too long!

    If you are consistent and stick to it, he will learn!

    What we did with our dog is take her outside every time she eats or sleeps and when she looks like she's gonna go. Even if she's in the act, we pick her up and take her outside.

    Idk if you've tried this, but we've only had our dog for 4 days, and she's already starting to get it.

    I think he needs to be walked more often if kes going in the house alot. What we did with our dog is we put down some of those dog pads and he just went on them if we were sleeping or not in the house.

    Is he fixed? This might help. It's probably not pee but spraying that he is doing.
