HELP - HOW TO POTTY TRAIN A LHASA APSO?

?

Hi, I just got a 9 month old Lhasa Apso female. She has just recently started to defecate outside but just won’t urinate. She urinates once I am back in the apartment after walking her. Or she urinates after her walk in the stair which is annoying because it goes on to other peoples mats. However, I do give her lots of treats when she defecates and also stand patiently with her using the word “toilet” continuosly.
Please can anyone suggest anything?

I have a Lhasa Apso and she is potty trained. We potty trained her by keeping her outside until she does her buisness and we didn’t bother if she barked. Anyway, when she did go to the bathroom we took her inside and rewarded her. That is the best way to potty train a Lhasa Apso. However, now that my Lhasa Apso is potty trained she thinks every time she goes to the batheroom that she’ll get a treat but that is bad if you give your pet too many treats or else they’ll become, well you know what i mean right? I hope everything works well with your Lhasa Apso. Mine is funny and kind to others. We just need to work on her begging for food!!! :)

About Them-
1. that they were holy or good luck dogs, These treasured dogs were from Tibet
2. he would be a CEO of some very high-powered company
Train Them-
A. They will require a lot of patience, consistency, and gentleness
B. have him “sit” or “down” before you give it to him Food
C. make it a practice of having your family eat first before giving him his food.
D. they will need to go out after each meal
E. You should walk him to the designated area that you want him to use and encourage him to potty offering him lavish praise when accomplished
F. not to distract him with petting or talking until he has finished
G. pay attention to your pet when he starts circling or sniffing the floor
H. If you catch your dog in the process of a mistake, announce in a calm but firm voice “no”, and then take him outdoors
I. Never be harsh with your Lhasa, Instead use praise as positive reinforcement. When your dog’s mistakes have stopped for a week, allow him more and more time out of his confined area until the crate is no longer needed.
J. pillow for comfort
K. Once you have convinced your dog that you are the leader that he must follow, you should have no trouble teaching him to obey
L. use a reward of some tidbit that he likes to facilitate the training
M. They will not tolerate harsh treatment
N. pick a time to train

Commands
O. No- If you catch your dog in the process of a mistake, announce in a calm but firm voice “no”, and then take him outdoors

P. Sit-The easiest way to teach “sit” is to start with the dog in a standing position in front of you. It’s best if your dog is somewhat hungry. Hold a bit of food high over his head and bring your hand back slowly passing the food across the dog’s nose. As his nose is raised in the direction of the food, he will automatically sit as he follows your hand. Say “sit” in a calm, controlled voice. When he is sitting, praise him and give him the treat
Q. Down-“Down” is the next command you may want to teach. Once he is in a sitting position in front of you, hold a piece of food in your hand and raise your hand over your head, slowly bring your hand down over the dog with fingers together but outstretched. Once again as the food passed his nose he will lower his body as he raises his nose. Say “down” in a calm, controlled voice. When he is “down” give him praise and also the treat. I
R. Stay-Raise your hand in front of the dog with fingers together palms down; slowly bring your hand closer to your dogs nose. Take a step away and when he stays give him a treat. Gradually increase your steps away from him, slowly increasing his “stay” time
S. Come- After he has learned to “stay” while you are on the other side of the yard you will want to give him his reward by holding your arm straight out to your side, parallel with the ground. Now move your arm forward slowly so your hand touches the opposite shoulder and say “come”. This will be a natural instinct for him so it will not be hard to enforce. Reward him with praise and a tidbit.

My daughter’s four month old lhasa won’t use her pee pad. I even put a little of her urine on the pee pad to entice her to go to that area and she only used it twice in a week. I have also left her outside for a fair amount of time but she only defecated once and I have never seen her pee outside. The pee pad is in the porch fairly close to the door. How long will it take to train her? I may be taking her to my home for several months and I have an older dog there. Do you think letting her outside with my older trained dog that it will help her become trained? W.
