[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a small breed puppy. The digestive tract is short and the bladder is tiny. And to be honest, chihuahuas aren’t the smartest. Get him on a feeding schedule and don’t give him free access to the water bowl. That should make it easier to predict when he might need to go.[/quote] This. Feeding schedule, limited water, plus smaller space as PPs have said. Also, when our 6 mos puppy was partially trained - she would pee outside, but still liked to poop inside. We did small dishes of dry kibble spaced all over the affected room. After a day or two of trying to eat all the food so she could potty there, she gave up and was fully trained for outside. [/quote] OP here. Things are going better, but the POOPING inside is still the issue! Peeing is almost exclusively done outside. [/quote] I've never met a dog that would sh*t in a properly-sized crate unless they were left unattended for WAY too long, so you're (still) doing something wrong, OP. [/quote]
