  sometimes cody really wants to be outside so if we can stay near doors, we'll just let him explore the backyard which is fenced in... there's a bell on his collar so if we hear it stop jingling we'll be able to look outside and see what he's doing.  If we're busy with something like dinner or getting ready for the day he gets put on two leashes hooked together with his water in an area where he can be on the patio in the shade or in the grass/sun.  If we are not home, is ALWAYS inside and for now in his crate (not completely housebroken yet)  |
