I'm in the process of potty training Hercules (he's almost 4 months) and he acts similar in the morning too. I'll immediately take him outside and he'll go # 1. Then I'll go inside and play with him for a few minutes, not more than 5 minutes usually, and then he'll go towards the door. I take him outside and he goes # 2. I think with Hercules it's because he's so excited in the morning to see me that it takes him a little while to calm down and allow himself to go # 2. Maybe they are just really excited to see you, so they don't want to waste their time going to the bathroom! |
