[Buster Bailey]

I agree with Zander's Mom. I only let my pups out the backdoor for "potty" time, and when we started, every time I opened the door I made each pup "bonk" the bells with their nose. We would always say "bonk it!" when they stood by the door. Buster does it every time. Bailey doesn't really get it, but she tends to jump at the door when she needs to go out, so her body will hit the bells & that tells us she needs to go out. They are 9 1/2 months old now. It took probably a good month before Buster really go the hang of it. The trick is to NEVER open the door until they bonk the bell. Good luck!!
