Well normally dogs don’t go there and it is going to be really tough but the only thing I can think of is to do it the same way you would a cat, but normally they learn that from there mother early in life! But you can try, if he looks as if he has to go potty put him in the litter box. Observe him closely and make sure he is using it and scolding him when he is not, he will catch on soon! GOOK LUCK!!!

At this age, it would be very hard. He is doing it in the right place, and you would be re-training him to do it in the ‘wrong’ place ( in the house, which has always been a no-no)
However, I will post a good site, if you are handicapped and can’t take him out.
This is a good site, and I can agree with all but the part where she says to ‘shout’ at the dog!!..

However, if he lifts his leg to pee, a litter box will never work..

It’s possible 🙂
what you can do to encourage your dogs to pee/poop in the box is to line the box with newspaper and take another old piece of newspaper and soak up their pee and place it under the rest of the newspapers. this will cause the pad to have the light smell of their pee… and thus encourage them to do their business there. another method is using the help of a housebreaking aid. it can be purchased at pet stores. just drip a few drops of the housebreaking aid in the box… and they will be encouraged to do their business there.
Try it! 🙂
