Default Puppy Habbits

We keep the dog locked in the back room at night and she very rarely has an accident. Soon as she out though she wee's in the front room, the hall, everywhere else.. Shes made the connection between not weeing in the back room.. why not the other places??

I've tried all the normally puppy training things and have even tried rubbing her nose in it...

I scrub the floor to remove the smell and throw her outside as soon as I spot her doing it. She just drops and pisses.. no warning.. least she sniffs round before pooing...

Any thoughts?

Sometimes they just take ages to get over it.
Reward her every times she goes somewhere useful but don't tell her off/rub her nose in it unless you actually catch her doing it or she won't make the connection.

Dogs very rarely learn from being told off (they just get nervous) but they learn fast from reward based training.

Mate.. I'm trying my best to go with all this new training stuff.. never shouting.. never hitting.. my other dogs got smacked when they were naughty and they all turned out to be amazing friendly and well behaved dogs..

This ignore them when you enter the room too .. OMG... I hate it

Rubbing her nose in it ... I dont do it often.. twice ever I think.. including just now.. she held it in whilst outside... WTF ?

Pimmo - What breed?
We have a 15 month old black lab and she's turned out to be amazingly obedient but also fun too.
But then a lab will do ANYTHING for a food treat so probably easy to train!

We read "the Perfect Puppy" and I really rate it.

Our dog (14 months) has been a complete pain to train. She still hasn't got it completely down yet. She is fine at both of our parents houses where we can just open the door and let her out, but at my lasses house, she has the odd accident (3 a week ish). The difference with my lasses house is that we have to put her on a lead and take her to the garden as she lives in a Maisonette. Generally speaking though, she has 4 out of 5 accidents at night time when we are in bed. She goes out last thing at night and first thing in the morning so i guess it's just a case of waiting till she grows out of it.

Pimmo has a GSD from memory.

Im having similar issues, nothing major but he has recently decided the hall is a great place to pee, even after being in the garden for an hour lol.
