Kanda....when you take him out...don't just stand there...make him walk around...on a leash or following you in the yard. Walking stimulates them to go.
I can almost guarantee you...immediately upon getting up...he has to go. All of mine go immediately in the am...and we wait until they've gone both. Ramsey would love to go pee and immediately come back inside, but she does have to poop...just takes a little while for that to kick in.
I always repeated go potty to mine...now Ramsey you do not have to tell...sometimes Reese gets distracted...HIM I have to tell and he'll potty on command.
It does get better...promise. Sorry Max spilled his dr pepper.
PS Our momma fish died today...sans vodka.
