I have a 16 week old pom-chua 4.4 lbs of love.
However, we can not get him to potty train, we tried the bell, the pads, the crate.
He spends 8 hours a night in his crate, NO messes
we take him out in the am, he does all of his business,
then we take him out constantly, and he comes in and hides and poos and sometimes pees on the mat others not, he even peed on his bed in his crate, what to do?? we are so frustrated,, we love this little guy, but we need him trained,, he is in obedience class and does well, EXCEPT for potty

for my puppy we confined her to the kitchen cause it has hard wood floor so if she goes we can clean it up easier. i would suggest that and taking her out ALOT, like every hour if possible.

You need to choose one method of training and stick with it. Switching around to this way and then that way is just confusing the pup.
