@xcskierboy After doing years of research on crate training, I decided it was right for when I get my pup.
So 1week into having my rottweiler pup home..he started to like the crate and have seen him go in by himself, which was great. However he's also comfortable taking a PEEE IN THERE! I've also got a divider in it to make it smaller, however that hasn't helped much. I've even witnessed him going in to releive himself!
On top of this, in his enclosed area he seems to like going on the carpet (disposable) during the day, rather than the pee pads that he uses at night (crate door open at night given his behaviour). Also worth noting he was raised for the first 8wks in an open room and breeder allowed the dogs to pee on a towel so presuming he's got that nature from there!
Must be also said I take him out regularly and he probably pees more outside than in. And I regularly soak it up and spray down on a daily basis. Guess this is going to be a long road, just hope it doesn't go downhill once I go back to work!
Any advice would be awesome.
Thanks
