Puppy Pooping Inside?

October 11, 2017

House Trained Puppy Pooping InsideMy 11 month old blue nose Pit Bull has been potty trained pretty much since the day we got him at 6 weeks old, but now he won't stop pooping in the house. He won't pee inside. I let him out whenever he wants until he's ready to come in, which sometimes can be up to a hour. He will usually just end up sniffing around our yard, pee, come back in and a few minutes later he'll poop in the house. He shows no sign of injury or illness.

You can try the following:

Step 1
Don't punish for accidents.

Step 2
Praise him when he does the right thing.

Step 3
Clean up all areas with an enzyme cleaner to remove the scent.

Step 4
Take away food between meals.

Step 5
Adhere to a strict meal/walking schedule.

Step 6
Crate him if necessary.

I have a 5 month old male German Shepherd, we have finally potty trained him so he will go outside. He will poop and pee outside, but he's very persistent in squeezing out one tiny drop of poop on the third floor of our house.

What can I do to make him stop?

Maybe he needs a little bit more time outdoors. Make sure you clean up the spot he has been going to with an enzyme based cleaner or he will continue to go there.

My 7 month old puppy keeps pooping in our basement. She finds a way to get passed the gate we have put up and poop downstairs. When I catch her from coming back up she knows it was wrong. I praise her when she goes outside, but it still continues to happen. I monitor to see when she goes outside to make sure she does go and if she doesn't I try again with her shortly after. She gets kenneled at night since I don't trust her to be out at night, but I wish for her to roam where she wants. Any suggestions?

Are you praising her with treats when you go outside? After many times of treat rewards, she will get it! Be repetitive and put some in a sandwich bag on your way outside.

I take my 5 month old puppy outside just before I go to work in the mornings and check on him almost every hour. He seems to get the right idea on peeing outside, but not the poo. Between the time I leave for work and the time I check on him he has gone poo on the carpet.

Is there something I could spray on the carpet to stop him from using it for his toilet? It is almost like he is getting even for me leaving!

Use an enzyme cleaner like Natures Miracle, which will remove all traces of scent. If you dont clean remove the scent, he will go back to the same spot over and over.

We have a 10 month old Pit/American Terrier mix that has been potty trained to go outside since she was 3-4 months old. She has recently started pooping in the house sometimes right after coming inside.

The only thing that has changed, is that in the last 2 weeks she is afraid to go outside alone. I will go out with her to do her business and even after going outside she might go inside again. Help!

Something might have frightened her two weeks ago. Set up a strict walking and meal schedule. Take away food between meals. Praise her when she does go outside for

We have an 11 month old English Staffordshire terrier. On a regular basis we dog sit our friend's Staffy (1 year old) for a couple of days once a month.

Recently our puppy has pooped inside the house when the other dog is staying over. He has done this twice most recently and at seperate times.
The first time he pooped where the other puppy had previously been sleeping, but at the time of execution the other puppy was on our bed sleeping next to us. They both end up sleeping on our bed through the night which is normal.

The second time was inside on the mat to where the main exit to the outside door is. This particular time he proceeded to exit the house through the recently installed dog door and put himself in his kennel. There was a little trail of poop leading towards the dog door.

I'm not too sure what is going on, is our puppy jealous of the other puppy? Your advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Your dog feels threatened by the other dog and is marking his territory where the other dog has been. Make sure you give him a lot of attention and you might want to separate the dogs at night

I have a 5 month old Border Collie Lab cross. She is house trained, but for some reason all of a sudden she has started messing her bed no matter how many time she is let out during the night. She will occasionally whine to go out for the loo in the night, but then will still mess her bed.

She sleeps in the same room as my husband and I so she isn't lonely. It has only started in the last week. I mentioned it at our last vet appointment and they said she is perfectly healthy so there is nothing wrong with her. Is there anything I can do?

Has there been any change in routine or even change in furniture/environment? You can just redo the house training. This is normal with a puppy.

My puppy is 8 weeks old. I feed him and give him some time, then take him out to potty. Outside I walk with him and let him run around. He pees OK, but it can be 20 minutes waiting for him to poop.

If nothing happens I bring him inside and then he poops! What do I do to change that?

Each time he poops in the house, into his crate he goes. He will learn that if he wants free reign of the house, he will have to do his business outside.

We have a 10 month old dog who has been a dream dog. He has a great personality, was house trained in a very short time, and is very social. He has been restricted to our very large kitchen and den day and night, is crated at night and hasn't had an accident in these rooms since about 2 weeks after he came home with us at age 9 weeks. He has been very hesitant to come out of the kitchen into the dining room and living room, but will occasionally for short snippets of time. Recently, he has gone into the dining room and living room and left us some "gifts" on the floor (both hardwood and rug).

I don't know if he associates only the kitchen/den as inside and everywhere else in the house is considered outside or what's going on. We want him to feel free to roam around when we're home, but we're now afraid to open up the gate that blocks him in the kitchen/den area. He's walked outside several times a day. He hadn't done this until recently. Any ideas of how to stop this?

Has there been a change in his schedule? If there has, your puppy may be confused. In any case, get a product like Nature's Miracle, which will remove the odor.

Your puppy has marked his territory, and will keep going back to that same spot unless you neutralize the odor.

I think your puppy may be confused because he is restricted to only 2 rooms in the house. I would think that as he begins to associate the remainder of the house as his territory too you will see this behavior go away.

My wife and I sleep with the mattress on the floor at night. We have two separate single size mattresses combined (while waiting for our new home). My 4 month old Shih Tzu is potty trained. She pooped in her cage in the room or the pee pad, but recently, she started pooping on my wife's bed.

The moment I changed the bedsheet, she peed on it. Just this morning, I woke up in horror to see my wife covered in Pancake's poop, still sound asleep. She only does that on my wife's mattress and not mine. I don't think it's my food supply because I haven't change it for a while. Her cage is opened for her to do her business all the time, ever since she was potty trained, but why now? Any advice? Is it because she can't hold her bowels because she is only 4 months old? But she only did it wrongly on my wife's bed and not else where. When the mattress is lifted up, she will pee and poo in the cage. I need help here!
