I mean my nephew will still not poop on the potty and he's 4. Make sure your roomate understands this, oh and maybe u could go and get Nature's Miracle cleaner. When she pees where she's not supposed to, clean it up with this. It takes away teh smell so the pup doesnt know that he/she has gone there before. Because once they pee somewhere, even though we clean it up and think the smel is gone, their noses are much much more sensitive and they do still smell it. This stuff really is a miracle. I cant tell u how much it has helped and stopped Dolce from going in places where she peed and she wasnt supposed to. Try it and let me know if it works for u. Oh and tell ur roomate "patience is a virtue"...ur right, SHE WILL GET THE HANG OF IT....it just takes a little while. Good luck!!

I just picked up Nature's Miracle Cleaner at Petsmart yesterday. The man there that helped me said it was effective for him and his puppy...so im trying it out and my doggie hasn't went in the same spots since, no smell etc.
