We brought our Alphie home and he is adorable and a barrel of fun! He is only 3 months old, so we are still in the teaching phase. He has done quite well with using the piddle-pads....most of the time. For a week or so he never misses. Then, all of a sudden, he goes in the other room, or even in the same room as the piddle-pads, but on the opposite side of the room. It's kind of like he's thinking "just to let you know, i DO have a mind of my own". The playful biting is getting better. Nibbling playfully, we can deal with. But every now and then, he gets a little rough. So we have to quite playing and walk away. But we are confident that he will get the hang of what is expected of him. He is a smart puppy, with a stubborn streak. |
