Kipawa nighttime peeing

Basenji Training
  • @dmey:

    Maybe this helps, at first Ayo would pee outside when I took him out, but I always left some newspaper in a corner and when he couldn't hold it he would go there, ( don't ask me who taught him that!!!) so I didn't have to wake up at two or three am, he would just use the paper and go back to sleep. Eventually I would wake up and the paper would be dry, until I didn't need it anymore!! I can't remember how old he was, but I never got up to take him out. Only the other day when he had diareah, then he woke me up!!!!

    I did pretty much this same thing with Paco when he was that age, with puppy pads. The problem came in when he grew bigger and started to "miss" the puppy pads, as he never stopped using them on his own like Ayo did. After a failed attempt at litterbox training him, we wound up having to crate him at night until we woke up to let him outside to use the bathroom. About a week of that, and he seemed to get the idea that he could hold it all night. :)

  • I'll be setting the alarm again tonight for 3:30 a.m. After a week to week and a half of that, I'll change the alarm to 4:30 a.m., and continue on that routine, gradually increasing the time by one hour, until eventuaully Kipawa can hold his pee all night.

    That sound like a really good plan… hope it works out...

    I am sorry to hear about Pippins mom. ....

    mia only gets water when were there to watch her and take her out about 10-15 minutes later.. whenever shes taken out of the crate she goes straight outside.. and before we put her in we take her out again, whether thats 15 or 20 minutes or an hour. i've quickly learned that water goes RIGHT through them. so taking the water out of the cage should work! she has an occasional accident but not everyday.

    @mhergom: Hello, I have an eight-month female, She is peeing at least 5th times per day. Many times she waits t o be back home to make pee. I do not know what to do I am getting crazy with pees I had nightmares Thanks in advance for your help If she is not spayed, she may be in season and they do pee lots more (marking behaviors)…. and this can and does start before you even might see bleeding. 5 times a day is not that much really....

    This is really a mystery… I have no other thoughts.... I still think the key somehow is related to the fact that he just "pees"... without thinking about it.... very strange... You might want to just be sure and repeat the urine for a UTI... like I said they can be hard to detect sometimes... I have seen that before... One more thing, has his eating or drinking habits changed?...

    I adopted my B and the foster parent that I picked her up from said she would pee in her crate at night if there was a blanket or any kind of bedding in there but is fine otherwise. When I adopted her we decided to leave her out at night and she also seems to be fine with that.
