We got a puppy last month (Tucker will be four months on the 15th) and it's been relatively cold here the past week (not 0 but below freezing.) I've never pad trained him. I began taking him outside since the moment he came home so it's just what we do. He doesn't go for walks, just outside to one spot of the yard to potty and then right back in. The cold may work to my advantage because he doesn't want to be out there any longer than it takes to pee or poop. Lol he does have a little parka coat that we use and I do crate train and follow a very specific schedule with him so he's starting to realize when he goes out that means it's time to do his business. |
