My husband & I work so I thought this might be a good thing if he is housebroken. Your thoughts please. |
The saying "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" isn't true. It is great to get an older dog if you don't want to house break them because I have learned with my own it is hard to do so. All dogs love treats so I'm sure he will be a great learner.
