Dogs have been toliet trained and now regressing to going potty in house again. What cause this type on behavior, and how can we correct this type of behavior?

Depends on alot of things. Is the dog a male, or a female? Male dogs are harder to break, because they want to mark their territory. Has there been a major change in anything? Have you moved, gotten new furniture? New person in the house? Changes in your routine, like hours of work, your smell, or scent of perfume? Could the dog have a bladder or kidney infection?

    Age is also a factor. Just like old humans, dogs lose bladder and bowel control as they get older.

    Well, I take care of a puppy.When he wants to go outside he’ll bite.If you don’t take you’re dog out before you sleep he’s going to pee inside.If you have a boy he’ll either be marking his territory or he might be waiting to long to go pee.

    watch for signs that your will do every time he needs to go pee. You can also get him training pads. one thing i reccomend is to have acertain time to feed him and take him out.That way he can get used to the schedule and he/her probably wont pee inside.

    I am having the same problem. My puppy is 5 months old. She knows to go outside. She still sniffs around and pees and poops. I was told by her trainer that the pheromones are still left in the place she Potty’s even after I have cleaned it. I bought special cleaner at pet smart. But, it is really hard to know exactly where all she has went.I am now retraining her with the crate. It seems to be working better.

    When this happens your first step is a check up at your vet. This could indicate a medical problem.
