Subborn pug puppy refuses to be house trained!
Help! I have a nearly eight month old pug puppy, male, neutered, who refuses to be house trained. We have been trying since we got him in MARCH and nothing. We have crate trained him (which he doesn't go in the crate), but we'll take him outside and sometimes he'll go fine. Other times, we'll sit out there for 20 minutes, nothing, then the minute we get inside he's peeing on something. We've tried giving him special treats when he goes outside. He knows he gets one after he goes, but he doesn't seem to get that he's supposed to go outside. We yell at him when we catch him going in the house and take him immediately outside. We keep him in an exercise pen in the living room to try and avoid accidents. NOTHING has worked! Please help! We're at our wits end!
