I pretty much took my guy out literally every 20 minutes and waited for him to shit. Then when he finally did, made a huge deal out of it with over the top exaggerated praise and treat rewards. He got it fairly quickly I think. I think you need to clean where they shit and piss in the house really good so there not like "yep, smells like this is the place I should do that".

Try a crate, they wont' crap in it usually. Needs to relearn where and when to do his stuff.
Crate at night, xpen during the day when you can't keep your eyes on him. Keep a leash on you at all times and every 30 minutes to 1 hour take him out (to potty, not that 'take him out').

I keep Pupperoni Training Treats on me at all times. So when I dash out I have them in my pocket and they get a reward for doing their business, treble if they poop.

Ive used vics vapor rub after cleaning where they go with good success in the past .

Can see his rib cage. Feed him better. 1 mile walk the turd out of him.

yo bam,

the pound had chiped, checked for heart worm, de wormed, and just like me....neutered..lol

they even waived the adoption fee for me because of my age.

he had been returned once before and was waiting to be shipped out to another pound, probly his last stop.

that tugged on my heart.

the bite was on, caught 4 about this size...

i have a boat, but i can take a 1 hour car ride and fish at this state park for free.

my health is declining and docking and handling my boat is to much for me now.

Well I’ll tell you what let me/us know if hes going back first. Im sure we can find someone who might be able/ willing to work with him further first. I know if you were closer id get in the car now if needed. Is the house breaking the only issue right now?
