damn little dogs!

[calveless wonder]

Me and my girlfriend (actually, my girlfriend wanted this little shit) got this fluffball looking pomeranian and my question is........

how can something so small pee and shit so fuckin much? It's ruining my condo.
It's at my place right now because she's moving and we're not allowed to have pets so we can't walk him(He's an indoor dog anyways). I set up a little pee pad for him outside on the balcony but he never uses it. Everytime we leave the room or go out for even a second there's a crap pile or puddle somewhere in the living room. I want to leave the little fucker outside on the balcony when we're not with him but my girlfriend lets him back in because it's been raining.

btw i'm a cat guy

Kennel him up when you're not in the same room with him. Never kennel as a punishment-- that should be his den. He won't pee in there if it's a cozy size. Don't yell at him for catching him in the act...all that does is teach him to be sneaky about it because he's afraid of getting yelled at.

If he's having an accidently immediately bring him outside. If he does anything outside at all praise the hell out of him and give him a little treat. Also remember that you have a puppy and he's a baby and still learning. He's not trying to spite you or anything, it just takes a while for a puppy to learn the difference between inside and outside.

As you're not a dog person and your sweetie doesn't seem to know what you do either you should seriously consider a puppy class at a good training school. You'll be floored by the difference. Most pups can start puppy classes at 8 weeks.

Good luck!

Oh...and as for blaming it on him being a little dog...keep in mind that big dog puppies have to learn too but they make even bigger messes.
