oh sorry bout the caps, no idea it was no the right thing! laptop was on caps when put it on just didn change it, i apologize
 
Who are you screaming at, by using all caps it denotes screaming and yelling and also against yahoo's tos.

Just make them go out and dry them when they come in
 
You need to get your dogs used to going outside or they will never learn,
if its raining put a raincoat on get all excited and go outside persuading your dogs out with a treat, this should work give them a treat, make it all exciting them go back indoors and shut the door, after only a little time let them in a praise, that shows them being outside without you is good too, keep this up, it should work, increasing the time they go outside to the toilet,

good luck! :)
 
I am very sorry for your pain and disability, it has to be said. However, I'm seriously concerned that you actually want this!! Dogs should pooh and pee outside. And I guarantee you, if you start to allow them to do their business indoors, it won't be confined to pee pads, litter trays, newspaper etc. It will end up with them going anywhere in the house and within days, you will not only be living in a very smelly house, but tearing your hair out over having to bend down and clean up the mess, as is obviously already happening. And that will hurt every bit as much as having to let them outside. When it's wet outside, you have to insist they go out. If they are adults, it's not that difficult to work out their habits - adults on two meals a day should normally only need to pooh four times. Peeing should only be necessary every 4 hours. And if you want them to go through the night, feed them their last meal around 5 pm latest, and put them out at 10 pm. You might consider employing some youngsters to take them out for regular exercise, to minimise the need for eliminating around your property during the day.

The bare truth - if you want an animal that uses a litter tray etc. you need to switch to keep cats.

ps Pssst - don't shout!!
