Potty Training A 9 Month Old Mini Aussie

by Josh
(NM)

We just rescued a Mini Aussie and she is a sweetheart. We are having trouble trying to get her potty trained. Her previous owners had her using pads but never had her go outside. We will catch her in the act and stop her, then take her out. She refuses to go once I take her out. she will wait until we come back in an find a spot inside. Has anyone gone through this with their Aussie and how do you fix this?

If you are still using pads you could take one to the spot in the garden that you want her to use. If she uses the pad outside you can gradually make the pad smaller until she is happy to go without it.

You are going to have to be very patient. Take her outside (on a lead if necessary) whenever she wakes up, after meals etc and just wait until she does something. You are looking for that first time so you can reward her with a really yummy treat for going outside. She will then start to understand what is expected of her! Try to go to the same spot in the garden each time too. Never get angry with her.

Make sure you deodorise any areas in the house that she has soiled with a non-ammonia based cleaner or she will always want to go there.
