Regression in house training may occur for several reasons. Changing mealtimes, bringing a new member of the family, or even a baby can affect a dog’s housetraining habits. Aside from medical conditions, such as pregnancy, stress, and illness, some dogs have difficulty interpreting changes in their owners. If your dog is experiencing housetraining regression, here are some tips to help you make the transition easier. The following are some causes and symptoms of regression in housetraining.
Regression in house training may also occur when an adult dog needs a refresher course. It may never have learned how to use the potty outdoors. It may also need help transitioning from pee pads to only going outside. If you notice that your dog has had accidents, read this article to find out how to solve this problem. It may be time to invest in another method. Until you are certain your dog can go potty outside on his own, try to get him or her to use the doggie pad instead.
Another possible cause of dog house training regression is separation anxiety. If your dog has a favorite person that follows him everywhere, he might have anxiety issues and will go potty indoors if he is separated from them. Fortunately, if your dog experiences separation anxiety, it’s not too late to get back on track. A vet visit and patience may be all it takes to correct the problem. Once your dog gets used to going outside, it’ll be easier to reintroduce him to the routine.
