@jkent said in 4 months old and difficult potty training:
sometimes just looks at me when I give her the command to eat it, not understanding.
She might be confused about the signals. Try eating a cracker while she's watching and then, setting her bowl down and telling her it's "okay" to eat. In the dog world, the boss (Alpha dog, or leader) eats first. Then the other dog(s) get to eat.
