Great re-assurance Capt & Bella. I feel bad that she want's to play & run but know that it is critical I slow down & teach her properly. Capt Noonie I remember you from all your help last Dec when I was looking at a 2yr old named Stormy that just had kidney stone surgery. You rwally helped me! I hope my lil Nikki will be as well behaved. She has a very well mannered disposition (except at "those" moments) I am learning everyday & hope my cuddling with her at night makes up for "training mom" & doesn't spoil her to much. Lilly's mom: I bought the same product. I use dawn dish soap at firts then if it really needs more treat it with that more expensive brand. We are both learning to get her potty handled in the kitchen on her pads & have shorter playtimes on the rug in the main room & using her leash (oh she does not like that..but is getting use to it). She never uses the potty pads I have out in the living room or by our patio. I hope to someday get her to use them on the patio & hope to someday get her out of the kitchen.. Someone said once she gets use to the kitchen will be hard to change. She is smart but I am Slow & getting more exercise than hoped bending & cleaning. The night hugs are worth it..I hope ;-) .Long road ahead...
