My 51 / 2 month old boxer dog not train, still pees in his cage and will not sit and listen.

We used the same training techniecs we have learned from PetSmart training classes we use for our dogs. She is six months old, work with it all day every day, is used positive reinforcement with treats, as we were taught. we have another puppy that was trained and out of her cage for 6 months. Now is only 8 months old, and is completely formed. I need help with this, we have tried almost everything except the extream pain and shock collars, we do not want to try this … If at 6 months and is in a kennel in the night only, with enough space to turn around like PetSmart and our vet and said he still pees on him, could be some kind of kidney problem? Your Urin smells worse than anything I've ever smelled when it comes to dog pee … HELP!

If your urine has a distinct smell of fish, may have an infection urine. This is also evidenced in the case of frequent urination, but it is not able to. If you are drinking lots of water (more than usual or more than it would hopefully) this can also be a sign that there is a urinary tract infection. If so, a visit to the vet and some antibiotics should do the trick. She just 5 1 / 2 mos old. Dogs (and people) learn at their own pace. Be patient and continue using the techniques I learned with consistency. We have trained kennel dog and used "puppy pads" to line bottom of the cage while gradually reducing the amount of time spent in her kennel. Gradually moved puppy pads for the back door so she knew where I was going when I had to pee (not that we wanted to pee by the door). Finally, learned that when he went to the door, we could let out and urinate outside. This process took about two months and she has not had an accident in the house since. Good luck. Be patient.
