How Do You Teach A Dog The Difference Between Carpet And Grass?
I have a 3 year old female cockapoo that is mostly housebroken. She will not pee inside the house, she waits to be taken outside but she will poo poo inside. However, she only poops on carpet, if there isn’t any carpet available, she will wait to go outside. Apparently she knows that what she is doing is bad because she runs from me afterward. So does anyone have any ideas about teaching her the difference between carpet and grass?

When she has an accident in the house , make sure you clean it up really well afterwards or else she will smell it later and think that this is where she is supposed to go poo. She probably always goes on the carpet because it is harder to clean therefor leaving more of a smell. Just make sure you clean it well and take her outside every half hour to make sure she doesn’t do an accident. You should also get some good cleaning products that are safe for pets. If she really can’t resist going in the house than maybe you should take all your carpet out of your house.

for the areas the she goes on the carpets there are sprays at the pet stores that will remove any stains and eliminate any trace of odor to discourage her from returning to the spot.
Until she learns the differance take her out every couple hours praising her heavily and rewarding with treats or play time when she goes.
When she goes in the house bring her to the spot while saying no very sternly, give her a tap on the nose and put her in the kennel as a time out.
