QUESTION:

We have a terrier/doberman mix and she is about 15 months old. She is a rescue and we have been unable to get her to pee outside. She always goes down to the basement and pees on concrete floor. We have watched various videos and potty training and nothing works... any ideas you may have would be appreciated. Thanks.

ANSWER:

Hi Greg and Anita,

If you feel that you have exhausted all other avenues, you may want to consult with an animal behaviorist. An animal behaviorist may be able to identify the root cause of the problem and prescribe some methods to correct the behavior. It is likely that the behaviorist may have dealt with this issue before and know of ways to correct it. One that you might try is:

You can refer to their website for more information and contact information, if you want to consult with them.

I wish you the best in resolving this issue.
