Hi all so my 4 month long old Akita x Belgium Shepard won’t go to the toilet outside at all. She won’t go out on walks or when she’s out in the garden. As soon as I let her back in she will go on the puppy pad. I’m not sure if she was let out in the garden from the person I got her from but it’s like she wants to go but she’s unsure, I try to encourage her but she just won’t do it.

Has anyone else had this issue and if so what could I try?

Many thanks

We have an article here about puppy training, which may help: House training Do ask if anything isn't clear or you need any more detail though.

It sounds as if the puppy pads have trained her to do her toilet indoors. Can you offer the pads outside and see if she will still use them.
