Need help housebreaking my dogs!!!

Pugs are known to be stubborn. They think that they could get away with everything just by doing the head tilt. I had my pug for more than a year now and I ain't having any problems when it comes to pooping time. Every morning I take them out. He can have as much water as he likes during the day. I let him out once in awhile to pee. Then later in the day I let him out to poo, I hold him on a leash and would go to a place where I want him to do his thing. As he grew older I don't go with him anymore because he knows that's his territory. He has his scent on the grass. Everytime he does it perfectly, I praise him like crazy and gives him his favorite treat. It would be better if you have a mini space alotted for him inside your house, if you won't be able to watch him 24/7, try placing him in a crate, place in toys, goodies so he'll enjoy his time inside the crate. hoping you luck on your pug. Oh and it takes time though...patience is a virtue. your pug won't be able to learn it overnight but with your help and every one around him you'll get it through. Good luck!

I have minature duschounds and i also had trouble house breaking them. I take them out half hr after they eat and they stay outside when the poop. than i give them a treat when i let them in. Do you leave them home alot during the day? that make a big differece also. They get use to doing it in the house. I also use puppy pads and that helps out alot when im gone, they pop on that insted of the carpeting.
