My experience so far...
My 2 are 11 weeks a boy & a girl. It definately is harder to housebreak. They go outside great but when it's raining, no way. I live in Pgh so forget the snow in the winter - they will never handle that. I've not had too much luck with pee pads inside & hubby don't want them. Won't go in the litterbox. My friend suggested to take some sod & put in a litterbox & remove a little sod everyday - tried that today - I turned my back & come back in the room & they had it all dug up, dirt flying everywhere - having a great time. LOL! Time for plan C. It's just going to take a while but that's OK.
They play together alot & are inseparable & are just as cute as can be. When one learns something the other is quick to follow. They each have their private times & follow me everywhere. One has to have a 5 min cuddle when she goes to sleep where the other just wants to crawl in the crate. Everyone loves watching them play together. I think they help each other eat more. One will come back & eat a little more if they see the other still eating.
I am clicker training them & they take turns going in another room with me for a session. Chew toys they always want what the other one has but other than that it's been loads of fun so far but then they are only 11 weeks old.
