It took about a year for our Harlee to completely get it!!! She is now 6 and will hold it til we take her our...She gives one teeny weeny woof and that's her signal...And as a well-trained mommy, I take her out...(Even if it's the middle of the night)...Now, our other 2 are hit and miss...I have 3 wee wee pads in the special places they like to go...Great praises and a special treat only for going outside is given....Never punish them and put them in their crate...It's not supposed to be a bad place...It's their comfort zone...You should take them out or to the wee wee pad every 2 hours, I heard, if you can...If not, the xpen is second best with a pad...I also have washable large pads, like a diaper with a plastic bottom....I got them from my daughter so I couldn't tell you where to get them....They are heavy and good... |
