with Poppy our older bitch who is 3 half now it took about 6 months to train her

But the little one who is 13 months old now we have had only one Wee in the house and that was the OH's fault as he was on the phone at the time. We crate trained her, Puppies will not like to go in the crates as it is there bed, so they will let you know when they want to go out. we took Meg out after waking up, feeding, playing, etc and at least every hour to start with, and it worked well. Even now she will whine and let you know if she wants to go out, she loves her crate and only goes in it at night time, to sleep, the rest f the time she has free run of the house. so good luck, i'd get rid of the paper training and buy a crate best thing i did
