| for those who use a bell....what about traveling? For those of you who use a bell to have the dog tell you he needs to "go"...what do you do when you go visiting or traveling? do you bring the bell? And where do you put it so he knows where to ring it? suzie |

| So far I have not traveled anywhere with either of my dogs. Both of mine go to a Kennel when we are out of town. I have a friend who boards dogs. Or mine have also stayed with a girlfriend. |

| I'm getting bells for my mom's house because that is where Loki visits the most (yeah she calls herself Grandma). Otherwise he just goes and stands by the door. So if we are visiting someone for a few hours I just watch him. For longer stays - we take the bells. They hang on a suction cup or on the door knob. If you are going to a new place, where your dog might not know where to go - just show them 3 or 4 times when you get there. GO to the door, clip the leash on or whatever and say GO OUTSIDE! and then take them out to potty. Repeat a few times and they'll be like "OH ok so I go to this door and someone lets me out" I've found that Loki remembers even if he only goes to the in-laws twice a year. But, he is pretty good at adapting because he goes everywhere with us.
