Haze said:Thanks for the tips..... guess what.. i got my dog ..
I adopted a 1.5yrs old male maltese. ya that dog which i mentioned have no tail.
Yesterday afternoon i went to the westie owner house to choose the puppy. When on the way home, my friend call me and said his friend willing to let go his dog to me. Must take asap due to he move house, the new area too quiet,, a single dog bark can hear very clearly. imagine he have 13 dogs so quite stress out. So i went to take .. is not because just a couple of hundreds. Is because i like the dog when i see him, a poor little who was always in the playpen. Actually before that, there are someone who willing to give me her 4 mths old male maltese and 2 yrs old female maltese. But due to no connection, i did not take either of them. I adopted this dog because i think he really deserve much more love and freedom.
imagine last night when i got him home. He roam around the house from 11pm to 7am non stop.. as if no need to sleep. never hear him cry.. so i think he is too happy can just run around freely. But then he fell down a few times between the kitchen and living room as there is a single stair. so everytime he was either stuck at the kitchen dare not walk up a stair or stuck in the living room dare not walk down a stair.
Today and tmr i will be taking half day afternoon to see company him.![]()

Haze said:Thank you.. buy my dog a toy i will forgive u
Err I think he is not toilet train. Everytime i see him, he was in the playpen. Pee and Poo on the playpen ..
I did read book .. but all is train from puppy. This dog already 1.5yrs old.. i wonder how to retrain.
Initially, when i see he very long did not pee and poo. I will put him in the playpen and walk away for 30min. Then when i come back he already pee.. sometimes poo. weird hor.
I tried to teach him keep pointing to him pee .. poo.. but he dun do that infront of me leh... or when i go shower..come out he poo liao.. very fast.. :dunno:
Golgotha said:hahaha buy u toy ah? I send u a PM show u something u might like. As for the toilet train thing u got pee tray n newspaper for him? They got some liquid where u drop a little on to the newspaper for him to smell, so tat he knows where to pee, there's also a stinky spray to spray on palces to deter him from peeing or pooing there. I've tried it on my dog.it works but then later on, once he show attitude, he will do it anywhere!
hagenuk said:Haze, the initial part is always tough, and the word to retrain a adult dog is "Patience" and with :heart:
When you are home, if possible remove the playpen, and overlay the wet/dirty newspaper with fresh one, basically this is to encourage him to return to the same spot for this 'business'
Keep an eye on him every mintue/second if possible, if you managed to catch him pee or poo at the correct spot, reward him verbally(ex. "good boy" !) and with some treats that he crave for when he is done with the business.
Otherwise drag or pull him onto the paper even when is doing his 'business' half way.
As time goes he will understand the message you're trying to put across to him.
