i know this all to well.......

when we first got lucky he was 8 weeks and we pad trained him right away. within 2 weeks he had the peepee thing down

but the poop took a little longer

. for whatever reason he had the habit of pooping
next to the pad but would never poop
on the pad ( very frustrating right?) well with a little patience ( about 1 1/2 to 2 months worth) and lots of praises one day he pooped on the pad and i praised him to death even made up a silly song and dance but it worked. then twice on the pad and so on. he did have a few accident next to the pad of course but with time that all stopped

. now he mostly poops outside in one spot but if hes in the house and i dont get to him in time he poops on the pad

. i cant remember the last time he had a poop accident

. lol now were working on the peepee accidents. it doesnt happen to often but ive allowed him more freedom in the house so far hes had about 2 or 3 peepee accidents.....but he's learning. guess he has to get use to being away from the pad and learning to go find it when he has to do his business when hes in another part of the house........
