Maybe take a pee pad outdoors with you?
Hmmm I don't know, I've been training Binks to go outdoors but I do put a pee pad down at night and he uses it.
He still has accidents in the house especially if I'm not paying attention.
Boy I think this is gonna be a long hard road, nothing even remotely similar to housebreaking a poodle lol.
When I was first reading about them being hard to housebreak, my thoughts were humph how hard could it be, cause I'd always had my other dogs housetrained in 2 to 3 weeks and thought well these people don't know what their doing lol.
Well I have learned that this little guy won't let me know when he wants to go out, I think he thinks its to cold out there, so I just have to take him out every couple hours should I forget he goes potty in the house.
So anyway maybe if you take a pad with you a few times he will know its ok to go potty out there.
