To me it was like raising my kids, I didn't believe in PULL UPS........I thought it was sending the wrong message. I hope I don't get people upset, but I am from MN and it's been snowing but we still TREK outside to do our business, he has had a few accidents, but I am adament about bringing him out every 1/2 hour if he's up (he's ALMOST 10 weeks) but I am interested in how long it took people who ONLY BROUGHT THEIR puppy OUTSIDE to potty train. WE have only had Scruffy for 2 weeks, and we are working hard at it, and he is doing great................so far

Thanks so much!!

When I owned medium to larger breeds they were trained outside. Now with the cold weather my small ones would freeze outside and by the time I dress 3 of them in quilted parkas, accidents inside.
