give him a treat like a tasty snack when he has finished. that wayt he'll be in a hurry to finish the next time.

also, maybe he wants some privacy, and doesn't appreciate you staring at him impatiently.

you can speed peristalsis considerably by running the dog. I toss the ball in the yard, and it takes just a couple of tosses and the job is done.

Let the dog take his time. Geez. How would you like it if someone gave you a 5 minute window to sh1t, whether you have to or not.

Take him to a vet. If he's trying to urinate for a long time and fails, he may have a urinary track infection.

Eat the poop and show him how much you enjoy it. Then, the dog will want to poop more often, because he knows how happy his poop makes you when you eat it.

Alternatively you could simply let the dog poop inside the house. Or you could put the dog in the bathtube if you happen to have one.

You're in control of the dog, not the other way around.

See the south park episode with the dog trainer to understand. ;)

i think i would feel kinda funny telling my dog to "make poopy"

that's just not a phrase i see coming out of my mouth for some reason

Any key phrase works.

"Number Two!"
"Take a dump!"
"Go potty"
"Taco Bell!"

Whatever you feel like. It's not like the dog understands English.

:thumbsup:

In the winter, we used to just get one of those 30 foot leashes and let the dog run out the door, then close the door and put the looped end around the handle of the door. He did his thing then came to the door when we was ready.

Now it's fenced yard FTW. When it's cold, you just open the door and let 'em run out.

But what it does boil down to is that the dog hasn't been properly housebroken. A properly housebroken dog will tell YOU when they have to go by sitting by the door, getting excited, etc. It's also most likely that they will go immediately following a meal. As funny as it sounds, you just gotta know what time of the day your dog goes and to take them out shortly after that if they don't tell you they need to go out.

we trained the dog to tell us she wanted to go out by ringing a bell...eventually she would just bring the bell in and drop it at our feet

of course, she never really bullsh1tted around when it came to using the bathroom either...yes, bad pun intended :p

No i'm serious it works, not that I'd do this to my own dog tho.

How far up there would be acceptable? I can get a stick to do it.
I think the wooden stick will not be good idea. As someone spoke here, you could make injury on colon to a dog. The wood stick it is dry and will scrape out rear passage of dogs with bleeding to ensue. Try carrots. In Kiev when I the boy, our neighbor man below was Dimitri, he used for use of carrots or a narrow potato with some oil on it, that open up a dog good. It will have startling influence on a dog and it will not grow fond of it, but very soon excrements will pass. If dietary changes, can be problems. The eat of meat will be difficult for passing, and the dog will have difficult dry lump explusions. Have a dog to eat series of cabbage and after that to put carrots with oil in it anus and you it will see as easily comes outside of. I hope it helps.

Hello all friends ATOT, ok!

Aint that the truth :laugh:

My dog takes forever to go too. I can't always rush it, so I don't expect him to. Just throw on a jacket, maybe gloves/hat if it's really cold.

Do you know this guy? Who is he? I mean is he for real? I just saw another post on another thread suggesting the oily potato for dog agression too.

We just tie him outside, and when he's scratching at the door we know he's done and ready to come back in.
