| Is it possible??? Is it possible to house train a dog who has had free run of the house after carefully cleaning the areas that they used? |

| I know it is because Murfee was never confined. I just kept my eye on him and learned his "signs". Good luck

| I never confined Chewy, I watched him also... Natures miracle works well to take the smell away... Sadie is not confined and she is doing pretty good with the potty training, she is 18 weeks. Chewy is completely potty trained and has been for over a year.

| Depends if you're there all the time. What happens when you go shopping, church, visiting? That's when I had problems and realized I needed to confine when I was gone. Still do nine yrs later. Good luck. Joanne |

| Ever since Jasmine was about 9 months old she has had full run of the house and she at times had accidents if we were gone longer than she liked but its very rare for her to have an accident except last night when we were under a tornado warning she wouldn't go outside and she went on our porch behing the grill.. I felt so bad for her, but we used natures miracle and that was a miracle!!!
