But it took that long of not giving up, day after day of vigiliance. I kept telling myself that I was sacrificing a small portion of my life and Millie's life so that I (we) could enjoy each other for the rest of it. And I can say she is 100% fully housebroken. So in the end I have to say it was worth it, but it was exhausting during the process.
So just keep up how you are doing and eventually there will be a happy ending to it. |
Thank you thank you,... I come here for advice/encouragement,and I get it. I can say that despite the mistakes I do see SOME progress...even if at times like Paula Abdul says I take two steps forward then two steps back.
