Not going to say Rizzo is totally housebroken, but he is now 10 months old, and we haven't had an accident in the house or in his crate in...I think at least 2 months. I take him out every 2-3 hours when I'm home, and he stays in my kitchen with a pee pad while I'm at work just in case. Sometimes when I get home during the lunch hour the pad will still be clean
though when I get home from work at the end of the day it'll be used...weird since there is a shorter gap from lunch to off work time??? Probably because he runs around like crazy and drinks a bunch of water when I lock him back up after lunch. So I'd say it took about 6 months of constant work to get him housetrained
