I have had her for 1 week and 5 days.

Possibly still a bit of anxiety and uncertainty with her new surroundings.

Trixie is approx 21 Months old, Her previous owners said that she may pee near the backdoor through the night if she cant get out to go to the toilet.

I take her out around Midnight (Just as I will be again in a moment) each day for her last walk and toilet break which she does her business and we return home, she is also walked twice through the day.

However most mornings I wake up to find she has peed near the back door, I do not give her treats for this but do give her treats out on walks when she has done her business in the right place.

Is there any other way other than getting up every couple of hours or so through the night to let her out into the back yard to have a pee etc, to get her to stop peeing in the house considering through the day when we are up she does not do this.

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

You might try this:

I doubt it will work simply because it's already been tried denying access to the area she toilets. All that happened, I believed is that she found an alternative spot to toilet.

Seems like Trixie May be slowly calming down, no mess indoors for 2 days now and has been waiting around 9 hours through the night in between walks.

Although she is restricted to the back yard at the moment due to being in season and I take her for short walks early morning and late night when I know there is no other dogs around in the area.
