Gidget (poodle,deceased) was given to me at 7mos, she was pretty good at that point. Satia (sheperd/wolfhound mix,also deceased) was trained 7 days after we brought her home, she was 8wks, just an incredible dog! Montana (Golden Ret) was about 5 months til she was trained, love her alot, but she's just not the sharpest knife in the drawer! Kansas (Jack Russell) was also about 5 months. She was my first experience with a terrier. They are soooo smart, but also have mind of their own. She potty trained when SHE was ready! Hunter (German Shep) was trained at 10 weeks, he's very smart and REALLY wants to please people. Now, my Yorkie, Indiana, is 7 1/2 mos and not completely trained. He was doing pretty good til he had his liver shunt surgery and then we kind of back slid. This past week has been our best. He has only had a couple accidents and I am getting better at reading his signs. All my dogs have been trained to go outside. I have never used the pads or paper. |
