Puppy Advice

‎08-02-2011 02:34 AM

Hello Ladies and Gentleman,

I am in need of some potty training advice. We just adopted two (brother and sister) 4.5 month old Chihuahua's. I must need my head examined! Two major problems. First, they won't go outside most of the time, but wait until we bring them back in. We keep them in a pet playpen except at night when we put them in a crate, unless we have them on our lap. How do we get them to potty outside?????????

Second, the sister cries most of the night because she wants my DH and I. If we put them together, they fight at night and I am afraid they will hurt eachother, apart, they both cry. I am tired and hot here in Az at 107 degrees trying to get them to potty and getting no sleep.

I love them but I am at my wits end. Any advice would be appreciated. We got them from a Chihuahua rescue foster family who let them soil the floor, so I think they are confused about where to go potty.

How long does the crying last, its been a week! We did put a Tshirt of my Dh inside and it doesn't help, neither does the clock, she tried to chew it. LOL
