 apartments and potty training
Interesting chatter even though not entirely appropriate for this forum I will say that regardless of wrong/right decision to hide your dogs, having worked for a apartment leasing office I will say most people do get caught and that is VERY expensive since your file likely notates all the rules about dogs and you likely signed a very long contract that will say soemthing to the effect of no dog and fines that go along with breaking the rules which you will be legally bound to abide by. Not preaching just sharing information incase you were not aware. It is VERY expensive to get caught...
Anyway i wanted to discuss the potty training issue. we use those jump start pads as well for same reasons as other person(breeder suggested and he is too young to go out) and they work better than any brand I have tried. He will voluntarily go to them and if not on them around them, so th eeffort is there. I have started doing crate training to get some routine about him and that is working well. He will still get excited and just go wherever from time to time but progressis being made.
Now , aside from the pee, what are your (you all's ) doggies doing about pooping? Ralphie likes to go right in the front door on the rug, and NEVER on a pee pad, perhaps because he wants privacy? Any comments?
Oh and another thing, spot cleaning with enzyme cleaners and a Bissell Spot cleaner ( $37 at Lowe's or Linens N Things) Great investment, works like a charm so that there is no spot or smell. |
