They actually helped with bath time tonight, and my 14 year old told me that he even picked up pooh without having to be told tonight! YEAH! Although this too shall soon pass.... I will call vet next week for Tobey getting fixed. Jade I have to wait on. I have to do something about this smell in my house. It is embarressing and these dogs cannot have run of this house anymore. Maybe some people can give me some tips on how to house break, for a mommy who isn't home often, although hubby and kids get home early! Goodnight guys and thank you for all of the wonderful advice! I'm alittle overwhelmed with work right now and pissy rugs and furniture but I am going to go and cuddle with my babies in my bed and call it a night. My friend at work has a male chiuahua who is 2 and still not potty trained and she just lets him go all over the house. See this I cannot have. Being a nurse, this is very unhealthy for my family and not my standard of living to have my house smelling like pee all the time. Ok OK I'm rambling now. I'm overtired. Good night!

I'm glad that you made that decision. Just the thought of not havingmine to snuggle with makes me cry.

I hope your boys step up and help out but that age is not a good age for helping. and getting the boys to let them out will not stop the peeing inside untill the dogs are completely trained. And the kids too.

May I suggest that you get an x pen or pen them in a bathroom or other hard surface area when no one is home.

also getting the carpet professionally cleaned and getting the male neutered will help.

Good luck I hope it all works out for yiou.
