| Proud Mama After 9 long months of trying to figure out when Maci needs to go to the bathroom and trying to keep her consistently on a schedule, she is finally figuring out that barking in the entryway of the house=going outside! I am so so so excited and proud. She has done it on occasion before but I feel like it is finally starting to "click." This afternoon I took her out after she woke up from a nap and she went potty but didn't act like she needed to poop. We came back inside and about 20 minutes later she started barking like crazy in the entryway. I walked right in there and asked if she needed to go out and she started jumping around. When we went out she went poop right away and I showed her just how excited I was! She probably thought I was crazy lol. Consistency is key! Anyway, just had to share my excitement with others who might appreciate it because my family will just think I'm crazy; and for those of you with young ones who are just starting the potty training task, there is hope! I knew very little about properly potty training a puppy when I got Maci, but here she is, FINALLY catching on if we can figure it out, anyone can!

| EXCELLENT!!!! Fine job mommy!!! I hope you also gave a treat...some people on here have a "designated treat" that is associated strictly with potty training.....doesnt it make you feel like you have successfully "flipped on a switch" in those little heads when they finally "let you win because they finally see YOU are more persistant than they are, and they will not WIN this battle...so they let YOU win!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! |

They live to please us!! It makes them soooooo happy when they see they have made us happy! That is why it breaks my heart to see them abused...they try so hard to love us and even when they are mistreated, precious little souls will wag their little tails and try to show us love....SO PROUD OF MACIE AND YOU!!! SHE CERTAINLY KNOWS HER MOMMA LOVES HER!!! | |
