Default New cocker spaniel puppy in house- House Training

The last dog, we had, died at 13 1/2, and he was a regular sized
daschund. I don't remember it being much of an issue for him to get
house trained.

This cocker spaniel is taken out very frequently, and we are using
crate training since we both work during the day. He does fine with
that, and he goes outside when we take him.

We've only had him a week, he's 11 weeks old, and we wonder when
should we begin to see progress at getting him to stop peeing and
pooping in the house, even right after he goes out, or at other times
that are unpredictable. Again, he is on a good enough schedule where
we take him out after sleep, his naps, and after period of confinement
in the crate.

He does not poop or pee in the crate, but he does in his play pen, or
whereever else he decides to go in the house, and we are watching him
very closely when he is loose .

How long is going to be before he will do what is expected of him
without having accidents inside?

Thanks,


Bruce
