Pot belly pig house training

Davidj · 06-07-06

I have just bought a pot belly pig, she is 2 months old, she has always been outside on the farm. I have had her for 3 days now in the house.

I am keeping her in the bathroom for potty training. I have a box with newspapers in, which is diagonally accross from her bed.
She has from the first day used the box for doing her droppings, but never has urinated in the box. She always urinates in another spot in the bathroom, but never in the box with her droppings.
I have even put a bit of the paper with the wiped up urine in the box hoping she will smell it and go there, but to no avail.

What can I do?

Wouldn't it be easier to take her outside to go to the bathroom?

maybe place the litterbox where she pees

,if it works then try rewarding her whenever you see her using it.
