hihi... I have tried the trainer spray, not effect for Hero boy. And I think it is not good for health also. Especially their nose is so near the floor. It is good that she knows that room is not the place for her to do business. At least she has the instinct that not to dirty the sleeping place. I am not the expert. However, if u plan to paper train her, you can try this: 1) Get the playpan fence, fix it to square shape at the designated place, with the newspaper underneath. 2) Whenever u let her out of ur room, carry her to the playpan first. 3) Command her to do her business. Don't let her out until she does the business, even if she lay down and sleep there. Praise a lot if she do the business, then let her out. If she really didn't do it, let her out after 15-20 mins. but keep an eye on her. Take her in the fence area once u see her in the posture for business. 4) U can leave the fence open in one side when she has done her business. 5) Wait till the next time u think is her pee/poo time, lead her or carry her into the fencing area. close the fence again and repeat step 3. After a while she will knows that she can onli come out if she do her business. When she is used to do her business there, she will tends to go there, and u can take away the fence. But this takes time. Few weeks for me as I am unable too watch Hero boy full time. At first, I make the square shape area for Hero boy, but he very naughty and really sleeps inside there, so I make the playpan triangle shape ( smaller area ) to "force" him to do his business faster After a few weeks, once he saw I place him inside the triangle area, and trying to close the fence, he eliminate immediately. One more point, which is not encourage by most of the ppl. But i practise it If u catch her peeing outside the area after the act, u can try to carry her to the pee pee, point to the pee pee and say NO, then carry her to the fence area and "lock" her inside. This is because she may need to poo poo after that. Good Luck... Keep me update with ur training Visit Hero and Casper's Blog
