I'm not an expert on dog/puppy training...but my little 4 month old Penny is doing well on the potty training. I started off my allowing her to play and run. Whenever she tinkled I would praise her each and every time. Whenever she pooped I would praise her and give her a treat. I made such a stink about her going potty outside. She gets all excited as if to say,"Look mommy! I did it! I did it!" and she runs circles and jumps in excitement. She gets her tiny treat and is done. Again, we started off by playing. It's hard at times to note all the times that she goes because she tends to do it quickly and it seems as if my Penny is shy about going in front of me...so she squats behind the trees/bushes
for her privacy. Perhaps that is what Jackamo is looking for. Either way...small treats go a long way and work wonders. Good Luck.
