He is soooo cute!! And so are the kiddos in the pics! Welcome to YT. The best potty training advice I have is watch him closely and be consistent. You can also do "potty boot camp" for a weekend. Here's how it works: Get a long leash and attach it to yourself, the other end on Lewis. He's gonna be your little buddy all weekend. He goes where you go...watch his cues for potty behavior and when he does that, go immediately to the spot you want him to potty. As soon as he does his business, praise him like crazy. Most of them "get it" in a weekend, some take longer. You can also do this if he regresses, which puppies do sometimes.

Good Luck!
