I am curious if anyone else has ever had this problem as far as the pooping situation with their dog? I know the older they are the harder it is too break a habit. We didn't have any accidents yesterday. Yay! |
The feeding schedule is definitely contributing to the problem. There are rare instances here of dogs who don't like to eat in the morning, and have one meal. Two meals is preferable for digestion and all of the body's systems, just like it is for humans.
Eating treats and whatever the toddler drops throughout the day is going to make your dog's pooping schedule erratic, unpredictable -- making potty training difficult. What kind of food is your dog getting from your toddler? That is concerning too.
