Dog poop

Question
Hi Marie, I have a 4 months old Jack Russel. He only poops on the paving and I want to know what to do to get him to poop on the grass. The first 3 months he slept in the house and pooped on news paper.

The part of the paving that he poops on is right infront of the gate, and it's really horrible, because we have to clean up everytime we want to drive in or out of the yard.

I clean up everytime and spray the area with spirits. It was a tip that I heard on radio, but no success.

I would appreciate if you will be able to assist me.

Thank You

Chantel
