teresa m asked:


I have a pug that is five and he was potty trained, but now he likes to potty on my couch and bed when I am at work. I work little more than 8 hours a day, so he is home most of the day by him self. I am at the end of my rope and not sure what to do with him? I do not want to have to give him up, but I cannot have him using the bathroom on my bed or couch. Any advice would help.

   put him in a crate, vets and trainers highly recommend you do that from puppy..he won’t piss where he sleeps, or hire someone to take him out during day..

   Has your vet examined him to eliminate a medical problem? If he is physically OK then I would reccommend crating him while you are gone

   Is he crate trained? If not, I would try this. It sounds as though he needs a refresher course. You can also get a belly band to put around him. This acts like a diaper. If he wets in it, he will not like it and will quit.

   An uncarpeted area of your home while you are away.
