Status: offline 		Little Bit (the dog) has this problem of peeing in the hallway..  She knows how to indited that she wants to go out but she refuses to until Bo gets home and she does this at late night when Bo goes to bed.  I have potting pads in the bathroom that she can use if we are not at home

Is there something I can spray or powder in the hallway?

I had a deaf dog that marked when I first got him, a little difficult to train, but not very different. He would get excited immediately after I woke and would mark while I was taking my 2 min in the bathroom prior to walking him (in an apt, no option for doggie door or yard). I kept him on a leash from the time I first woke prior to getting out of bed and then when he peed outside I gave him lots of attention. Took a few days but in less than a week he had gotten the idea.
If your dog is doing this because of separation anxiety or anticipation of a family member's attention then you may want to kennel. Some think it is cruel but a lot of trainers will tell you it helps gain confidence and relaxes some dogs if done properly.

Scrub the floor with bleach or a vinegar solution. It will kill the bacteria that causes the stench you can smell but guaranteed a dog's nose will still pick it up and go in the same area if they can.

Which is why the crate and walk method works best.

And make sure, she can't go wander around at night.

Some dogs/cats do this, because they feel neglected at night

I'm such a newbie here, I do not know when someone is referring to a person or a real pet.

I've lots of experience with dogs and cats, they've been around me all of my life.

Status: offline 		Damn it..I hit the wrong bottle.

When I was 16, I paper trained the beagles with no problem They became outdoor dogs when they were old enough.

Chihuahuas can't get it through their heads not to pee everywhere just because they think that damn place.

The apartment is too small for a crate.  This is a puppy mill dog who has been abused until Bo got a hold of her and we are close to get her calm.  She has this ingratiated in her that females are bad, except me.  She used to bark at me but I spent time with her and she loves me now

Status: offline 		I would put the potty pads in the hallway where she pees when you're not home and take her for more frequent walks when you are. Dogs are very much creatures of habit and their brains get "programmed" to do certain things in certain ways. She may know how to indicate, but maybe she only associates indicating with Bo and thinks it's okay to pee on the floor other times. Or maybe she just doesn't feel like indicating. I mean, I know how to keep my house spotless, but I don't......And scolding her for peeing in the hallway only works if you catch her actually peeing. If she's been scolded often for peeing, she may be associating peeing with being in trouble and is holding it back until she can't wait any more, or Bo gets home. Dogs can be weird.

Walk her often, and every time she does pee outside, reward her with praise, scratches in her yummy places and maybe a little treat. Get her brain programmed to think "oooh, when I pee out here, something nice happens!" Take some extra trouble to keep an eye on her at all times, and when she heads to the hallway, take her outside. It will take some time and effort, but she will get it eventually.

I have to  find a bed frame for Lizard's bed...sleeping on a floor is not doing her good.

Status: offline 		I am not degrading crates but this apartment is really small.  If I am not sleeping in the living room (futon )I would sleep with Lizard.
(read one bedroom and Bo sleeping on the loveseat).

I need to get the Walmart for some groceries ( and more pads).  I need a milkshake any way...need calcium

Status: offline 		There is that........I have one.......fortunately it is the smallest one......that will occasionally pee in her sleep. So when we go to bed she wears a doggy maxi pad. Pathetic I know, but it sure beats waking up in a cold wet pee spot and changing the bed at 2am.

What messy bedroom? The OP is talking about a hallway and I am talking about a problem that is quite common in female dogs.

In an earlier thread she was frustrated with her kids out of control messy bedroom.   I have no idea if it spills to the hall.  But animals can pick up on ?? laziness??

I agree that there are a fair number of dogs who simply have incontinence.

Status: offline 		Okay, understood it better now I've read more of the tips and trics ;)

Cant you get her used to the next steps (it worked with my first dog, which was raised at a farm with a dogdoor)
When she lived with me, during my workhours she used to pee and poop in my living and hallway. So then I followed a new routine:
I'd come home, ignore the dog, looking around the house to see if she did anything. If not: Cheeringtime: we'd go for a very long walk. If she had: Too bad......... I'd first did the cleaning up and refresh myself and then we'd go for a walk.

After a month she knew: Waiting for me at the door ment that she didn't do anything inside, if she wasn't there, she did something.

But this requires a very strict behaviour from you. You have to keep it up, never let it slip and let her win.

And still: Teatree-oil helps to make the smell unpleasant to pee there.
Maybe you should try Bach-therapy..... that also works with dogs, I have noticed.
