[MyDuke]

I can completely relate to you. Duke is 22months old, he has been trained to use the pee wee pad since I got him, however, besides from the times that he peed on my area rugs - which I no longer can have any types of rugs in my apt, I've recently found stains on my couch. His pad is only about 6 feet away from the couch and he would only does this when I'm at work. I would find these stains and smell his urine once I get home.

I got really frustrated the other day that I considered giving him away too but then is it really him or me not able to train him and be there consistently to train him? Who knows, but I can understand the frustration. I left him alone today with good faith, hoping he won't pee on the couch again since I had to wash the couch cover over the weekend. We'll see what happens once I get home.

And I can't crate train him since I work 9-5. He's been so good with the pee wee pads and not sure what's going on lately, and he's in good health too.
