6 month and still not potty trained

by Ines

Our 6 month old male pom which doesn't is potty trained. we have experience with a greatdane. the greatdane was so easy ot train, but right now, we thinking to give the pom away. he pees outside and inside in the crate, in his own bed, everywhere he goes, sleep plays he pees. this is definitly not normal for a dog to pee on his own sleeping place, but what should we do? We take him outside he made his business, we go back in the house he is running and peeing again.
we got him, he was 6 weeks old and it was a very bad breeder. the dog had two kind of worms and fleas.

this is his last chance, then my husband give him away. please help

too bad

Have you taken your puppy to the vet? With that much peeing, I would definitely rule out any medical issues first. I have a pom who, in the past, has had chronic urinary tract infections, causing her to pee inappropriately all the time, because she could not help it. Poms are usually very easy to train (but, of course, all dogs are different).
How big is the crate you use?
Here are a couple videos on crate training (if you are interested);

Hope that helps!
