my little one is 6 1/2 mnths and has been trained since 3 mnths to go outside..and when i first got her she thought it was ok to poo/pee in her crate..now as soon as she goes out thats the first thing shes does is pee/poo..she thinks the pee pee pads are some type of blanket..i try to put it down whens its raining etc since she hates the rain and walks on it like its broken glass haha...i guess i should get her some booties
