So your older dog is toileting inside and you don’t
understand why? Okay. Let me explain. First of all I should confirm that what
we are talking about here is a dog that has already been toilet trained and has
achieved this for a considerable period of time say more than 6 months. We also
need to be sure that the dog is not so old that it is incontinent or sick. If
none of the above are the case and you feel that it is behavioral then I can
assure you it most likely is and the problem is simply this.
Your dog is 99.98% the DNA of a wolf. For a minute think of
your dog as a wolf, in cute doggy clothing. The way your dog still works and
thinks is still like a wolf! Now the chance of you actually being the pack
leader is very slim. Believe me….if you want to check out to see if you are the
pack leader then there is an amazing video web site where you can see how you
fair!
Anyway back to the toileting in the house, in the wild if a
wolf puppy was lost and needed to find their way home how would they go about
it? There are no GPS systems, no street signs or maps to follow…..the puppies
would follow their nose. They would pick up the scent of the den and track it
back to safety and the adult dog pack would make sure there was a good strong
fresh scent to follow!
Now, for a second let me amuse you. You are not the pack
leader, your dog is, and when you leave your dog it is doing exactly what it
would do in nature to help you find your way home… and guess what?… you return
home. Only thing is when you return you are all stressed and angry (because you
were lost maybe?) – Nothing to do with the new carpet being ruined.
