Hello,
I just adopted a dachshund around 5-7 years old. He has lived his entire life outside, and is not housetrained. At night when I put him in his crate he does NOT go to the bathroom. If I leave him in his crate during the day he goes to the bathroom, usually just pee. For example, I ran a quick errand and was only out of the house for 30 mins and when I got back he had peed, even though I had taken him out to the bathroom and he went 1 hour prior.
I leave him in the bathroom with a gate up when I leave, and yesterday when I got back from being out for about 3 hours he broke through and tore up my carpet.
Any tips????
THANK YOU!!
