Zoe is funny, we got her about 2 weeks ago at 10 months, was potty pad trained and will go in the pad/newspaper...BUT when we take her for walks with her brother, she will not potty outside-even if it's a 1-2 hour walk outside. It's so strange. As soon as she gets in the house, she will do her business in the pads as if she was holding it to go in the pad only. It's hard to potty train when we're at work all day. Should I start slowly moving the pad towards the patio door? Can I do it on the weekends, observe all day. She's really good about going potty ~1 hour after meals.

Also, anyone have a solution for puppies that pee on their feet or tush? Every morning and every evening, her feet (sometimes 1 foot, sometimes all 4) and her little bottom smells like urine. It's a pain having to wash her so many times and I'm sure it's not good for her to be bottom and legs to be washed with soap each time. Not sure if she pees on herself or while she's walking out of her pee pan.

Hope everyone finally sees the photo of our sweet Zoe that I just posted as the avitar this morning.
