Okay are new GSD female 9 week old puppy won't go potty outside or unless are 11yr old dachshund male intact shows her how to do it that's fine they get along but the other dachshund male 7yr old altered don't like other dogs besides are 11yr old male dachshund he will growl at her and I don't want her getting bigger and start fighting him back that wont be good my problem is every time i take the dachshund out they go together how do I just call my 11yr old dachshund to the front door with out the 7 yr old running to it? I want to show her how he listens to me like example when it potty time i'll look at Brisk 11yr and badger 7yr and say wanna go out side lets go potty they get up go to the door they run to the door all exited and i'll put there leashes on I wanna teach Layla that the GSD but don't know how with out Badger 7yr running to the door Layla is in one part of the house and the doxies are in the other part I will carrie Layla to the part were the doxies are I wanna use Brisk as her teacher to go outside not in the house with out badger he don't like her if you guy's can give me some tips I would greatly be thank full I think that's the only way me and my Brother can potty train her.
sorry if this was long and if I repeated myself I tend to do that |
Your post is a little hard to follow... do you have crates at all? If one dog is being a disruption to potty time, crate them, potty the others, then take out the troublemaker seperately. Do a crate and rotate until everyone settles down :confused: If one of mine starts getting out of line, I seperate them, then reintegrate them slowly, with training. I've only worked with GSDs the last 15years or so though...

i am not an expert, but your trouble at potty time is a symptom of the real problem. you need to find a way to get all three dogs to get along. by excluding your 7 year old, imho, you are adding to and maybe creating the problem.

and to the other person I do not have a crate and my brother is the owner of the dog and he is against that idea |
Indeed a hard post to read and to nderstand correctly. If I may ask, how old are you? Still live at home with your parents as you mention that your brother got the GSD pup. If so where are the parents?
It sounds like you need to get a private trainer involved that comes to the house to unravel this puzzle; to keep all the dogs safe and you sane. |
If the dogs are fighting when they go outside and that's the only problem, can you just shut the GSD in a room or something while you take the 7 y/o out, and shut the 7 y/o up when you take the GSD and 11 y/o out? That seems like it would allow you to potty train the GSD without needing to crate her.
If this is your brother's dog, how much responsibility is he taking for her? A 9 week old puppy really shouldn't be having free rein in the house just yet, because it will make it harder to train her. Most trainers I know recommend that puppies are either crated/confined when they can't be watched, or tethered/supervised in the house. That will make it hard for them to get into trouble or to have an accident in the house, and it will also solve your potty training problems I think. I also think that you need to look at the underlying reason the 7 y/o is growling at her. If he's not just trying to play, that behavior will probably show up in other areas of their lives. At 9 weeks she can't do much to him, but as she gets bigger she'll be able to do a lot of damage without much effort. You should try to nip any problems between them in the bud by figuring out why he doesn't like her and either fixing it, or if it can't be fixed, figure out a way to keep them separated. |

Badger 7yr previous owners would crate him with other dogs and i'm guessing they fought for space in the crate because when i went to go get him all the dogs was crated outside and he smelled weird and i'm going to keep them 2 seperated i'm planning on getting a muzzle and i'm going to muzzle him when I have them two together for like 10 mines |
