| confused dear friends, i just got COFFEE on monday. He's 2 months old and totally adorable. I've been potty training him since day 1. To my surprise, he's doing well up until today. I use the weewee pads. He knows to go there for peeing, but not pooping. I did follow some of the suggestions here earlier. But I'm not sure if I did it right. He was pooping on the floor. I catched him before anything came out. I quickly move him onto the wee pad. But he tries to run away and stop pooping. so I brought him back on the pad and held him there. And he did his duty. Then I gave him tons of praise and reward. But later on, he pee'd on the floor again when he knew to pee on the pad. Again, I caught him peeing. I said no, and brought him to the pad and made him stay there while i cleaned up. Is that the right thing to do? steve |

| It takes time and patience. He does not understand at all yet. He knows you praise when he goes on the paper, but does not know that it's wrong to go elsewhere. they have to go, the go where ever they are. Mine go outside to poop, but they will pee anywhere. So everytime they wake up from a nap I take them out. eventually they will get the message. The praise doesn't seem to matter to them at all. When I praise them, the older two come running, the little ones go about their business. |
