Maybe Charlie doesn't want to leave to center of action to take the time to go outdoors to do his business, or maybe he is concerned about being left out. Maybe he also feels a sense of obligation to stick around -- does he seem protective of you/and or your baby?
Walking always inspires my boys to do their business, so it might help Charlie. I can imagine it is a challenge to handle the stroller and a dog leash. Plus, how is the weather in your area? |
I kind of feel like he does it on purpose. One time we were sitting on the couch watching tv and he walked into the living room and just started shi**ing right in front of us! This is totally new behavior. He NEVER has pooped on the living room floor..... even when we very first moved in. He automatically knew the living room wasn't an ok place to do his business. I think him needing more exercise is probably the problem.... I think he feels neglected. So I am going to try that route first. When the rest of the family is home I am going to make the time to just take him for a walk while the baby stays inside.
I'm in California... The weather is usually tolerable. lol
