When I got Lula I crate/outdoor potty trained her. I wish I did indoor when I got her instead.
She was doing fantastic with no accidents and then winter hit and she couldnt potty outside. She started having accidents and I had to train her to do what I trained her not to do, go potty in the house.
It was a struggle for quite sometime.
I got her a "potty patch" and its fantastic.
Aside from that the only thing I would have done differently when I first got my dog is that instead of 1 week I would have taken 2 weeks off from work.
I am lucky to have a happy, healthy, well adjusted..... best friend who is a professional dog trainer :P
Best of luck and Congratualtions!
