Im not sure, but do any of you think that maybe a diaper SLOWS DOWN the potty training process? It will only reinforce that he can go anytime, anywhere because the diaper allows him that "freedom." You are probably doing the opposite of training. I would think that it's like babies: when we want them potty trained, the diaper comes off and they have to hold it or they face the consequences of wet clothes or a wet bed.

I guess what I'm saying is: if you can't supervise your puppy while he's "loose" in the house, maybe you can keep him in a confined area where he should learn to "hold it." Whether it be a crate or in a play/x-pen, it's one of the ways he's going to build a stronger hold on his bladder.

I'm sure the diaper method works well too, so I'm only basing my reply on theory...sorry if I'm wrong!

Anyway, good luck!!!
