I have one dog, who is 3. She was a bit hard to potty train, & for some reason when she was younger she thought my room was the room to pee in. I tried removing the stains, and some
came up, but not all. Will the new puppy think she can pee in my room too? What kind of stain remover should I use? I've tried resolve and stop spot

IsabelleGrace answered Wednesday July 28 2010, 9:14 pm: If the stains from the first dog are still there, the new puppy will surely smell the first dog, and especially if the puppy is male, will want to mark his territory by urinating in the same spots. Keep the puppy in other rooms of your home at first, and when you can keep a close eye on him/her, allow the puppy into your room. If they start having an accident, scold them with a quick, high pitched "uh ah!" noise to scold them while picking them up and bringing them outside to the place they SHOULD be using the restroom. NEVER hit or hurt the puppy, but if you slowly introduce your puppy to your room, they should be fine.
If you still have your 3 year old dog who did the accidents and the two get along, the smell won't be quite as threatening to the new puppy, which might help.
For pet stains, the trick is to clean them up as SOON as they happen...I just used soap and water! To completely disinfect the accident, I sprayed Lysol anti-bacterial spray afterwards. The offending odor of the spray will keep your puppy away from the area. Don't overload on the disinfecting spray however, the chemicals aren't good for you or your pet!
