I am really pissed (excuse my language). It took me almost 9 months to housetrain my 1 year old female beagle and finally in the last 3 months she has caught on that you go outside to pee (pooping is still a work in progress but she is better). My landlord decided today to lime and fertilize his lawn and has informed us that we are no longer allowed to let the dogs go to the bathroom on the lawn or even play on it which I totally understand because they have ruined a nice chunk of it digging and playing and such.
My older dog is fine...he goes out on his leash, walks over to the public mailboxes and pees as to not offend anyone and pee on their lawns (really hooty tooty subdivison I am now in), but my beagle is upset. She goes outside and suddenly can't pee in the one spot on the lawn that was "hers" and she really doesn't know what to do. For the year that I have had her she has never peed while on a walk..she will hold it until we get home then go on that one spot. I just then spent three hours taking her out every 15 mins and still finally when she couldn't hold it any longer peed and pooped in the house. I can't get mad at her beacuse the poor thing doesn't get why I won't allow her back in her spot and I don't want to kennel her when she is inside like a new puppy because she knows how to hold it...she has control over her bladder she is just confused.
Please help me...besides that lawn there is all pavement for our walkway and driveway and I don't know what to do with her? I don't know how to train her for another spot. I do have her trained that when I say "pee pee" she pees on command but still only in her spot. I feel so bad for her...what can I do to make this transition better on her?
