My dogs go outside in the grass with no problem. I have 2 planting areas on my screened in patio area where they also go to the bathroom when the weather is bad. My smaller puppy is not even 2 lbs and I don't want him to freeze and get wet when it's raining. That's why I have trained them to go in the planting areas on the patio. The problem is that if I let them play out there on the concrete instead of going to the planting areas to potty they go wherever they want. Yes, I have grabbed them a few times while they are going but often I am too far away and they are done when I get there. I'm just surprised that they do not go in the planting areas. |
