So he got to play. we went out again about 8:30 no poop, but I kept him on the lead next to me, We went out serveral more times and no poop. We did take many walks about 1/2 each time still no poop. Then was time for lunch. We went for another walk about 45 min, and still nothing so I put him in his create. Now we have been outside at least 7 times went for walks and just to potty. Well still no poop. So back in the create. Then supper 5:15 Go for a walk again before it got dark and still no poop. Now here it is 8:12 and still no poop. Just came in from being out there for 1/2 hour. So now back in the create. He wimppers because he wants to play with Deiter. I said Cozmo no potty no play. Now all this time today Deiter goes with us. I am thinking that when he sees Deiter go and get a treat then maybe he would get the idea. Ya that was wrong. He just looks at Deiter and I like it is no big deal. I will poop on my time not yours. But then when in the create and on the lead he wimpers so bad. This is not easy, I will continue this again tomorrow. But I sure would think that he is going to have to poop before bed time isn't he..............
I feel so bad being he can't play. But no poop no play. Does this sound like I am on the right track or not. |
Well, think of it this way. For whatever reason, he isn't pooping a dozen times a day like he was, right? So, maybe that means that he IS trainable! And the fact that he isn't pooping in his crate is a good thing. It means that he DOES have some control. Did you think about a different food at all yet? I think that you're on the right track. I think it's one of a very few "tracks" you have before giving up. Sending you strength and patience...........
