He rang it twice pretty dead on, and then waited patiently by the door while I fretted about putting his harness on and taking him out. He smelled left and right for about 10 mins though before going potty, but at least he went! But then when he wanted out a couple hrs later to poop, he didn't bother with the bell...he kinda just scratched at the door. I waited with him by the door to see if he'd ring the bell, but no such luck, so I rang it for him with his paw. Did this happen with your pups? Does it take a while for them to get consistent with the bell? I'm still really excited that he rang all by himself even if it was an accident! |
Yay for Darwin!!!!
Yep, I continued to ring the bell with Bailey's paw too - just as you are. He's on the right track! Congratulations on your success!!!!
