My sister has a year old z zhu dog and it does the toilet all over the house in all bedrooms on top of beds on top of kitchen table just anywhere in general. He is walked at least 3 times a day, and wee's about 20 times each walk but still does his business anywhere! I am at my wits end with this and considering getting rid of the dog, this has ruined every carpet in my house and my daughters bedrooms, can you help please??

First, confine the dog to a wire crate when you aren't playing with him and when you are all sleeping. Maybe a 2' x 3', one you can move from room to room as you move so he feels included. Dogs won't go in the area they are confined too (unless they haven't been able to get outside). Take him out on a schedule and praise him each time he does something. Clean every spot he's gone on as thoroughly as you can, and cover with a smell he won't like (cheap cologne maybe), so that he doesn't think it's one of 'his' places that's OK to go in. Gradually give him more time out of the crate as he learns. Training is more work and takes a lot of patience if not done right from puppyhood. A puppy can be housebroken in a very short time if done right.
