Ziva( now 2 1/2) had a hard time potty training, seems like she has a very small bladder, she got good at the potty pads in the house but we had to have them everywhere
. I put an upside down rubbermaid tote cover w/ newspaper out in the garage- and Bingo! she liked it, so we just had to open the garage door like 10 times a day (a doggy door would be great but DH says no
) Our new pup is training outside but also potties in the garage if she can't make it all the way out to the side yard.
