It sounds like you thought he had it down and learned to only pee in a certain spot so you stopped training him. Training, potty training especially, takes consistency, consistency, consistency! Train him every day for at least a month, rewarding when he pees where he is supposed to, correcting him when he pees where you don't want him to, until it is almost engraved into his brain. I don't think it requires a dog trainer to potty train. It's really not that hard, get some books on training a puppy, read about potty training and train him constantly. Reward whenever he pees where you want him to. However, if he isn't potty trained by the time he is five months old, then would be the time to call a trainer, or possibly a vet just to make sure he isn't incontinent or anything. Good luck!

There are some really excellent dog obedience training courses out there that you can use. Be careful though - there are some pretty bad ones too.
