Jack Russell Terrier > Peeing in the house.

Member Since 04/13/2009     Barked: Wed Nov 28, '12 2:27pm PST  I adopted a three year old J.R. in March (is now Nov.) and if I don't keep my eye on him - he will mark within house. I could never catch him doing it so teaching or disciplining was out of the question. So then I tried diapers but that didn't work because he tore them off. To make a long story short, I had to crate him and it initially killed me to do that because with all the dogs I have and do own, not one was crated. I am out of the house for 9 to 9.5 hrs daily and he holds himself for that length of time so I know that he has bladder cantrol. In all, he is happier (he now actually goes in there on his own when he wants to be left alone)and I'm happier. I just make sure that he gets at least 3 walks (from time I get home from work until I go to bed) and problem has been solved! Oh yes, I do not crate him at night time - preferring him to sleep on my bed. my posts [notify]
