You would want to train Clarice to it just like you would regular potty training. Dogs are very substrate-specific, and at her age she likely is used to going on actual dirt or grass. You may want to add some dirt to where you are trying to teach her to go, and take her every hour or so to keep giving her chances to sniff and try it out. If she does go, rewarding with her praise and treats can help.

Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco! This is a matter of patience and persistence. I would continue to carry him out onto the grass and keep him on a leash on the grass until he goes and then reward him with a treat. You might also consider purchasing a product called Fresh Patch, which is a patch of sod in a cardboard container that you place on the ground and is used as an area where Jasper can go to the bathroom in the house or on the patio. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns!

Well, you have one heck of an undertaking to try to train 3 puppies at once. Housetraining a puppy is not as easy as you may think, and there are many things that can affect how easily a puppy is housetrained. Unfortunately, training multiple puppies at once and training to an indoor surface are all particular challenges with housetraining a puppy. I am attaching a link to a handout below with very detailed information about housetraining. https://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=2421 And this is an article on housetraining pitfalls. https://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=2461 I will say that it is often easier to train puppies to a fake grass surfaces outside, then move that surface inside. That will train the puppies not to urinate or defecate anywhere else inside the house which can be a huge challenge with smaller dogs. So, my best suggestion would be to take the puppies outside to urinate and defecate, but to place the fake grass outsi

I have had several clients with dogs that had this same problem . What worked for them really well is a product called Fresh Patch, which is essentially just a square of grass that sits in a cardboard box. I find that this product works very well for getting dogs to go to the bathroom on grass and outdoors for training. I would see if there is something similar in India or if they ship to India. If not, then I would recommend installing a dog door at the house or something and see if that helps.

I would recommend you get a second fake grass potty for the puppy. Either one of the dogs may not necessarily find it attractive to poop or pee where the other dog does its business and so it is inviting "Accidents".
