Ellen.....when I first started this potty training marathon, the cats were very distracting outside. I found myself getting mad at the cats for doing what came normal to them! They would circle around like they were stalking the dog. She acted scared at first, I could hardly get her to move, but now she runs to the cats like she wants to play with them. THe cats always run away now when she starts charging them.
The other night, for the first time, she went to the door, and looked up at the leash that is hanging on a hook! That is really the first time she gave any indication that she was realizing the routine of going outside. But, just as I was bragging, she pooped inside yesterday! So.............never a dull moment, I guess!
Aside from the type of litter, how is the training going?
Where I live, there is not too much variety to pick from. It is at least an hour to a Walmart, 2 hours to any type of large pet store (petco, etc). So, we try to plan ahead or find someone going. In my town you can get basic stuff, but everything is much more expensive.
