I'm glad to hear there's improvement! At least poop is easier to clean up?
My pup still doesn't really tell me when she has to go, unless it's a MAJOR emergency. If I'm sitting on the couch, she will go to the top of it and then scratch my head with her paw. That's as far as we've gotten. I've thought about getting one of those bells or something, but I think Addie would rather try to eat it than ring it.
