I got Pixie at 13 months and she was not housebroken at all. So Cali was pad trained and my Pom goes outside. I started with confining her to my bedroom with pee pads everywhere. Gradually I took some away until there were just the 2 Cali uses. Pixie never quite got the pee pad concept and would pee whereever she felt like it. Just in the past 6 weeks she started running to the back door to let me know she wants to go out and she has decided she prefers to go outside. I do worry she still goes in the house if I miis her que or she feels like it. I have had her 9 months. I think 7 months will be a lot easier than 13 months to train. I think with Pixie being in a large run for her first 13 months she never got the concept of only peeing in a designated spot in doors. If I had to do it over I would have trained her to go outside from the start,
