I think sometimes they eat stuff that we don't know about, and maybe that caused the upset. |
Here's our day: He lays in bed with me til I get up @7:30ish. We go downstairs, I Let him out in the yard. He pees 20 feet from the deck. Then he continues to run the perimeter of the fenced in area, and I stand on the deck and watch him.If he needs to poop, He finds his spot, does the circle dance, and as I holler to him what a good boy he is, he finishes up and flies back to the deck where we have a party and he gets a treat, which is for coming, not for potty. Then we have breakfast. I let him out again if he hasn't gone, and he does.
9:30 or 10 we go for a walk on leash, sometimes further to a park where we walk around a track (now snowy and ice covered) where I let him off leash as long as no one else is there, we practice come, sit, wait and its a great time. Twice around and we come home, on leash. That's our exercise walk.
