I got very similar advice from a Trainer that we will be going to for Obedience training. She also suggested a journal. You record when they eat, drink water, pee, and poop. It is really helping in 2 ways. One it shows us their schedules and also it reminds us to take them out!
The biggest issue seems to be the pee-pads texture. It seems that anything with that texture is fair game. We were camping this weekend and they did their business on the mats by the picnic table several times. They would walk to the very outer edge of the mat to get as far away from us as possible but not take the extra 2 steps to the grass! However, by the end, we were seeing an improvement. |
