Hello everyone. My puppy is a bit over 4 months now. He knows or holds it when it comes to going number 2 indoors but when it comes to peeing, he just doesn't get it. I know he is young. Possibly small bladder and maybe cannot quite hold it yet but I know he doesn't go in his crate. He sleeps in a crate at night. I take him outside 8 times daily and then when we come in he gulps down a bunch of water. About a half an hour to an hour after that I can see sometimes that he will loose intrest in whatever he is doing ( chewing on a toy) and I can rush him outside. I praise him when he goes outdoors. I even started bringing him broken peices of cheese and giving it to him when praising him after going outdoors. When I do catch him peeing on the carpet/ tile I tell him BAD in a loud voice. BAD DOG. He knows something is wrong. I really let him know. I try not to pay attention to him for 20 mins depending what is happening. I would like to know anyones experience in training . I do not like to keep him in his crate in the daytime unless I am doing something where I cannot observe him or when he naps, I put him in. My older brother tells me puppys have lots of acciedents and 6 months is usually when they become house trained. Any advice. shared experience will be appreicated. Thanks Hero
