oh believe me i clean my house everyday, and they are gated in the kitchen when i am at work, and they are trained to got outside too, but it's kinda hard to totally train them to go outside when you work 6 days a week 9 1/2 hours a day???? when i go home i let them out in the yard for about 1/2 hour and when my husband gets home he lets them out, they do great outside, my girl is fully paper trained - its just the boy, i also have to spend $200.00 for a rug scrubber for my carpet

believe me i am a clean freak !!!
