If you boyfriend is going to help,you might want to ask him to set a timer. When people around here "help" they loose track of time and therefore we end up with an accident.
Kenzie sits and watches me clean it up as I explain that this is not ok. I don't make it a game and I don't yell at her. I just talk sternly. Now if she has an accident she will run to me in a panic.
In answer to your question: yes, I always take her out afterwards. Usually I tell her "this is where you potty". I have 5 dogs right now and this is what I have always done. I don't do potty treats but I do give a lot of praise for pottying in the correct place. |
