Okay so it's been a while since I've posted and it's time to fess up!

I've had Dash for 1 1/2 yr. (he'll be 2 in March) and I have been HORRIBLE about potty training. When we got him he was trained to poop and pee on the "pee pad" and we thought that was wonderful. So he was really good about doing it and we thought things were great. Well when I went back to school, he got in the habit of peeing in front of my doorway (I guess he was mad I wasn't home) AND he started "missing" the pad on #2. So now for about a year he mostly pees on the pad and then poops in the hallway.

Now that I'm home, my family and I are SICK of cleaning up after him, but I don't know the first place to start to teach him to go outside. There are so many theories - I just need to start soon!! HELP!!!!
