Put her on a leash when you take her out to do her business. Walk her right to where you want her to go and don’t let her leave until she does. When she’s done, go crazy with the praise and take her away from the “toilet” area to play. It might take a while but she will eventually get into the habit of going only in that spot. This is what I did with my dog and he will hold it if he can’t find a spot covered with pine needles to go.
i agree, if you praise her and give her a treat it will work. we took my dog to a trainer, and thats basically what they did. lol paying money for something so simple
Two issues: avoid the concrete and go in a specific spot
For the concrete, it may be the smell. Wash the area with soap and water, then wash with vinegar. Don’t use ammonia… and the soap may not have eliminated the urine smell.
To go in a specific spot, she may not want to go in “his” spot. So clean up his mess every other day. At the same time, take a small piece of her mess and put it in the spot where you want her to go. It might be helpful if you can lead her to that spot to let her smell it.
That might help to prime the pump….
