My furry baby started going in the house also.Took him to my vet,he had worms.I believe there is a reason why they do that, if they are trained right. Punishing him will only make things worse or afraid of you. Hope this helped

Either take him for a short brisk walk before bedtime to stimulate him to relieve himself outside, or retime his last meal for earlier in the day so he feels the need to do it during the evening. Also at one year old he is at puberty and may be trying to assert himself over you with the pooing and barking.

I believe animals behave in certain ways for a reason, you may want to review your routine first to see if something is upsetting him. I also suggest you feed him his last meal at 8:00 p.m. And walk him at 10:00. Leaving the puppy outside at night will only frighten him and make things worse, don't punish him; help him!

As for the barking outside... Don't just "put him outside" - go out WITH him. It's the best way to be sure he actually goes potty - plus you can clean it up right away. I have 5 dogs and do that with each one. It's much easier that way once you get into the routine.

You may want to review your routine for any changes; I believe animals react to us in more ways than we think. Has your disposition changed in any way? He may be picking up on your feelings/emotions. I may also suggest you do not feed him past 8:00 pm and take him at 10:00 pm before you put him to bed. Leaving him outside at night is not a good idea, this will only manage to frighten and confuse him, help him, don't punish him! Finally, remember he is just a puppy and will grow out of it, show him you love him.
