Hi I love our little male Tyke. I don't have a female either. But I know he hasn't been any trouble training outdoors or in. He will go on pads if he's shut up in the house for a long time, but when we're home he lets us know when he has to go outside.
We got him when he was 12 weeks old and he's going to be a year old in June. He's not neutered and he doesn't mark in my house.....thank goodness.
But I haven't had any trouble with him. The only barking he does is when someone knocks on the door or drives up. He also barks if he hears someone comes in the front door and he don't see them. I like it because it's like giving me an alert to let me know someone is around.
so far he's a little angel and a joy to be around. I don't know what i would do if i didn't have him.
