we got tobey at 8 weeks and he slept in the crate until he was potty trained. He would whine when he had to go, so we knew when to take him out. we just put his crate on my nightstand facing me so he was really close and could see me/us. around 12 weeks he started sleeping with us but wasn't as good about telling us when he had to go. No accidents or anything, he would just go to the foot of the bed and stand there until one of us woke up and notiiced him. He couldn't jump off the bed because it's too high. then while I was on vacation for a week when he was 15 weeks, my husband discovered that if he put tobey on the ground, he would go right into the kitchen to his potty pad, then come right back. When I got back we figured out how to make a step so he could get on and off the bed by himself. Now he just hops down when he needs to go and comes back when he's done. its WONDERFUL!!!!!
