Volleyball2150's advice column

Hey! First off, i'm going to start by saying I came here on this site to give people advice. Some people actually don't know the real meaning of advice. They think its the answers they want to hear. But i'm not here for that. I'll give you advice, and it might be something you don't want to hear. But deal with it! You may take my advice or not, its completely up to you and you are not gaurnteed a correct solution.

Ok so now that's clear, I'll talk to you more about myself. Hence the username... I play volleyball. It is my passion and basically my life since I've played for about 7 years. Most of my friends say i'm 50/50 tomboy and girly girl. I LOVE sports!! I play volleyball all year round, and then I go to the park during free times to play some soccer, football, hockey, basketball or baseball with my friends. But then again, I could be inside trying on my new Sephora makeup i'd just gotten, or reading the latest Seventeen magazine or even arranging my clothes for school tomorrow.

You can ask me just about anything and i'll be happy to answer it. You can count on a full and detailed answer.

Oh and another thing... I love getting feedback! Even if its a negative comment. It tells me what I need to work on or even what I did correct.

So... the weather has warmed up
and the snow has for the most part melted all away in our dog run,
and now our puppy will not pee or poop outside, we assume its because the snows gone,
and shes not used to the grass.

But, she will go to the bathroom inside! argh!
and she was doing so good, as to going outside, until now..

What should we do?

Please help!

hmm...

well when we got our first puppy, she wasn't potty trained either. Now she's 3 years old and we made her a private spot where tree's are and she always goes there to the bathroom.

Try doing this: when your dog goes to the bathroom inside, say NO and shake your finger. Get your puppy to know that going to the bathroom inside is very bad.
first you have her get comfortable around the grass.
carry her out in a nice grassy spot and sit there with her. Pet her and be very soothing and nice... then reward her with treats. That will show her that the grass doesn't do anything to you.

Another way is let her eat, and then after a few minutes, put her on a leash and just walk around the grass until she eventually HAS to go the bathroom... then she'll HAVE to go on the grass, because there's no where else to go.

I hope I helped and all goes well!
