Question:

: Our puppy is now 9/10 weeks old. He is very good about pooping outside. And up until about 1 1/2 weeks ago he was pretty good about peeing outside. He has only had one poop accident inside. But here lately he won't pee outside. We can take him out and use our prompt words which use to work. But now he just runs around and then wants back in. With in 10 minutes he has peed on the floor. Any sugestions?

Yep, stay outside with him untill he goes, Andy, there are many posts on this board about housebreaking and please read some of them, you can't expect a dog this age to know what he is suposed to be doing outside, you need to keep him out untill he does both things and don't come back in untill he does it. Please remeber that a puppy this age will pee and poop about 10 to 15 times a day, and the need to go out after sleeping, napping, playing, eating and on a general rule about every two hours.
Good luck.
