Aussie Puppy Will Not Pee Outside

by Bryan Ford
(Brussels, Wisconsin, USA)

I have an 8 week old female. She pooped outside the first night. She has had a half dozen accidents (poop) inside but she will poop outside when taken out.

I realize these accidents were us learning her timing. But the pee is harder. We have been paying attention to her habits and when we take her outside to pee she will only sniff around, dig and eat grass. If we put her on the chain run she has so much anxiety she just runs back and forth and will whine at the door.

When we bring her in she will pee as soon as you take your eyes off her. And I mean she is quick. I swear she can void her bladder in about 1 second. One thing I noticed is she will try and put something between you and her. A wall, chair, table. As soon as she does I go to investigate and in that second she has gone. I have read a bunch of forum posts watched the Cesar videos, nothing is working.

I don't need an "just keep with it" advise. What can we do or what are we doing wrong. When she has an accident we don't spank, yell or anything. We just take her outside and nothing but digging eating grass or whining.

Please help!
