Great news! That is how I trained Kacee and she was housebroken in no time and I mean it! She will be 17 months old Saturday, the 9th, and if I am not paying attention when she goes, then she comes up to me and looks so sad and disappointed. So, I have to (act like an idiot in my back yard) say yahoooooooooo, good girl, good girls get treats! We proceed to run in the house like two idiots and get our little treat (all the while I'm telling her she's a good girl).
She was housebroken by around 4 months. No joke. She had a couple of accidents after she was spayed at a little past 6 months of age and that was the last time she had any. She never, ever does anything in the house. I hung bells on both of my doors and she rings the bell any time she needs out. I love those bells, because I can hear them all over the house. Isn't it wonderful??????
