| Potty Training What age is good to start potty training? Bella will be 9wks old and we tell her let's go 'potty' and take her out, but she still has accidents. We want to start crate training, but want to start at the right age. Thanks |

| I start trying to train mine to go outside as soon as I get them. I have 2. One is 6 months old and sometimes has an accident yet but she is really doing good most of the time. One is almost 10 weeks and I take them both out everytime together. She is not doing so great yet but then its about what I expected for 10 weeks. It does take them a while to even understand whats going on. But some days she does real good already. I think the hardest part is teaching them how to let you know they have to go out. Kizzy will ring the bells or bark. I'm trying to teach kacee to do that as she hears kizzy doing it. Hoping that will help her learn quicker than Kizzy did, since kizzy was my first one.

| As soon as you bring them home. Mine are weewee pad trained and we've been accident free for almost 2 months. I would say they are 100% potty trained now. Mimi is 4 months and Timmy is 5 months old. I do have to admit it wasn't easy...alot of sleepless nights and always looking after them. |
