Is on a formal feeding schedule - same time every day. She still will not tell me when she needs to go out. Will sneak off and potty if I do not watch her very closely. Any advice would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!! |
ah the woes of potty training. LOL it sounds like your doing a great job so far. Its hard to get them to give you a signal when they have to pee. Morgan would sneak off to the farthest place from me in the house and pee. she didn't really have a sign except to stare at me which she does a lot anyway. SO now, i rigged up bells on the door we go out to go potty. i got them here
www.poochiebells.com . for the first week i'd ask her if she had to go potty then walk over to the door with her, take her paws and ring the bell. she didn't really like using her paws so i held the bells out to her and she booped them with her nose. after a week she started running to the bells and booping them herself then running back over to me. she hasn't had an accident in the house since
