As if potty training wasn't a tough enough task, thanks to the geographic location of my hind end (North of Edmonton), I've got to convince my little fluff of destruction that it's a good think to poo outside just as long as you do it fast enough that your paws don't freeze to the ground! I sure wouldn't want to potty in subzero temps and can hardly blame him when he leaves gifts near the door and "forgets" to ask to go outside.

Anyone have any suggestions or am I "pooched" until spring?

(We wear warm coats and are held inside mom's coat until poo time then quickly picked back up)
