Congratulations on adding Harry to your family! Dogs can get confused about housebreaking and its likely that he's not considering the upstairs a part of 'the house'. I would recommend to block his access to the upstairs anytime you are not there to be watching him. I would also recommend crating him at night so that he remembers that he can hold it through the night. I would do this for a month and then let him loose at night time (but not upstairs). If everything goes well for a few weeks, then you could try removing the barrier upstairs and see what happens. Best of luck!

Designate an area outside for Ruger to use for elimination. Take him there when he needs to go and wait. No walking, but you can circle the area. Once Ruger begins to go, immediately use a cue such as "Do your business" or "Go potty". When he is done, offer praise and a small reward. If he urinates first, stand and wait until he defecates. Don't forget to say the phrase when he does this also. He can go on a short walk after he does both. You can use a spray attractant to keep him interested in the one area. Be firm, patient and consistent. When he is inside, do not leave him unsupervised as long as he is still soiling the house. Place him in a crate or on a leash attached to your hip so you can watch for cues that he needs to go out. Use an enzymatic cleaner such as Nature's Miracle to thoroughly clean any soiled areas.

Thank you for contacting Boop by Petco with your question about Brooklyn and for providing pictures, they are very helpful! It looks like there is some mucus on her poop, which can be normal. The rest of her poop looks normal, and since everything else with her is as usual, I suspect it's just mucus which is nothing to be worried about. I hope this helps!

I would expect that something like this would most likely pass through Gg’s gastrointestinal tract without a problem, however plastic can get stuck at any point. If you notice vomiting, diarrhea or a decreased appetite I’d recommend contacting your vet right away.

Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. If the puppy pads do not work, I would recommend a product called Fresh Patch, which you can order online. I have found that potty training is much more successful with this product. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
