Hello, I have a two-year old rescue Chihuahua, a female, named Mija. She will pee in the yard in the morning when she wakes up and right before bed. Sometimes she’ll also go at noon. I take her for a short walk (ten minutes) at noon and a thirty minute walk in the evening. I’ve had her four months. She has only had one accident in the house.

I tried some of that spray, that housetraining aid, and she just ignored it. But, she will go in the yard in the morning and at night. Is it normal for her to only go about three times a day? She will poop once a day on a walk or in the yard if the weather is bad. She is feed Beneful, and sometimes dry food.

My question, is it normal for her to pee twice while only on a walk? She has let me know that she needs to go out by being restless. If I leave the house, she is kept in a crate. I used a crate to train her. How can I know for sure? Thanks
I don’t believe in pee pads because I believe they encourage dogs to urinate in the home. I have made sure she goes outside. She doesn’t drink much water, her food has a lot of water, but is hydrated enough to keep her nose wet and gums pink. She goes for a thirty minute walk and has a couple play sessions per day.
