Title: Pooh corner
Post by: winewood on February 17, 2008, 11:20:47 PM
Sorry for title, I would like to try to train my two to use just one section of the garden for toileting  :lol2: Pooh corner, brought the jelly like pellets that are supposed to repell them from using that part of the ground. But Indi I'm sure just pee'd in between the pellets I have tried just taking them to the area where I want them to go they do usually pee comand but  when I'm not there they just go where they want. Suggestions and magic wand needed.
Thanks

P.S. forgot to say they are 2 and 3 years old

How about making a little sand pit sort of area or a section with longer grass? Just depends what sort of ground they like to use..... Other than that you may need to visit Diagon Alley  ;)

Hiya i have a sandpit at the bottom of the garden my hubbie drilled holes in the bottom and filled it with gravel (Easy to pick up in a bag) Lucy goes nowhere else its the one thing she is brilliant at, i used to lead her to it with a treat tell  her to  pee or poo and when she did get really excited and reward her she thought that was great(MY NEIGHBOURS THOUGHT I WAS MAD!) BUT IT WORKED!!! Give the sandpit a go that way they will know its theirs i think the knack though is the treats GOOD LUCK :blink:
