Thank you! The only hard part about it is when he wakes up at 6am (Im not a morning person)taking him out that early is no fun especially on the weekends! During the week is okay because I have to be up anyway.

I will definitely look into getting bells and I started giving him a treat while we are outside. That seems to work better.
