He stops himself and wants to come back to home! I don't know ho to do! I have brought with me his little food but nothing convince him to walk! can somebody help me? any suggest?

I think you should take a piece of meat,and take it outside.He might follow.

I own a briard and he would cry, u just have to take him out regularly and on the same route, that way he is trusting of his surroundings

he's just scared of his surrondings.let him out little by little and he will get used to it.trust me!!!!

My Pomeranian was the same way when he was a puppy. Instead of bringing some of his food out find a treat he likes and take that outside. Also what I started doing was sitting outside in the grass with my puppy. I also found some other people i my neighborhood with dogs and walked him along with my neigbors dogs. Dont get discouraged if you do not see a change instantly it will take a little time. Be patient. Now my dog loves going outside. And I still spend alot of time just sitting outside with him. I hope this helps. Good Luck. Let me know how your puppy does?

HI MILLY I HAVE A 3 MONTH OLD PUP TO HES A YORKSHIRE TERRIER AND WON'T STOP PEEING EVERY TIME SOMEONE COMES IN I WROTE TO THE DOGGY DOCTOR HES HELPFUL HIS ADDRESS IS YORKIEDOCTOR@NUVOX.NET THANKS JAYNE

I had a bit of a problem with my pup.,but gentle persuasion and coaxing did it.Don`t give in to her.
You could try having your boyfriend going out first and waiting halfway along your walk.If your puppy then knows someone is,say,around the corner she will be more happy to go out next time (perhaps)

I don't know anything at all about dogs, but maybe if you carried him out and then tried to walk him??!
We had a cat that didn't want to go out and ended up just pushing her out and hoping for the best for her own good!

I would like to put him out just for a walk... sigh! I don't want that he is annoying. he is a dog! He might love to run a little and see new things!!!

I had a big dog, a Léonberg, call Max. It doesn't barked when it had to pi, so we had maked somthing for that. We had hold at the door a twist with a little bell. So when it wanted to go out, it ruded itself to the bell, and we opend the door, and it left. We had maked the same things out, so when it wanted return, it do the same things.
It's easy to do...

I have a little Chihuahua, and he didn't like to go outside either. I think maybe because they are so little and there are so many noises? He is 1 year old now and he likes to go outside since he's more used to it. I think the best thing to do is for you to go outside and leave your door open so that he can come outside if he wants to. The more he sees that you are out there maybe he will want to come out too eventually? Maybe it's his personality, and he just wants to be an indoors dog?
