otherwise - dogs wouldnt make the connection between pooing now and getting attention at a later time and its probably something else |
Hi no I dont get up when they are doing it. I wake up to the poop in the morning.They dont sleep in our room as I have allergies to the pup.We have since given them less space to sleep in and so they dont do it anymore.
