| Is DH finally getting the message?? Hi everyone, do any of you remember me saying that we were tethering Princess Sophie to help with potty training??? That's what I've been saying for quite some time now. I do tether her when she isn't sleeping right next to me and she hasn't had any accidents outside her play pen for a while when I'm watching her. The DH has been coming home and giving her the run of the main floor then complaining that she is having accidents. I think he is finally getting the message but after I get up this morning, there she is with full run of both the upstairs and downstairs and he comes yelling to me..."We have to tether this dog all the time!". How many time do I have to tell that man to follow the rules and she won't be having accidents at all. Sometimes it's like talking to a brick wall. His excuse for giving her the run of the house is..."well, she's already done all her business so now it doesn't matter." I'd like to just ring his neck. LOL If I didn't love this man... This is frustrating for me and for Princess Sophie. No wonder she doesn't know what she's supposed to do. HELP!!!

2+2=4 X the Love ♥ Donating Member | Yes I remember and I can also feel your frustration when it comes to my DH & DS not listening or following the rules when it comes to our pups and potty training. I do sort of agree with him thou . . . she cant be tethered every minute of every day while she is awake or how will you know that she has learn her boundaries? If you have already set clear boundaries for her, everyone knows them and you have worked with her so that she knows them. They need to be tested to reassure that they are clear. What better way to do that than to allow her to run free. But only after she has done her business and only under strick supervision. I think its the DH that needs a refresher corse on the rules and boundaries that you have in place!!

| I think DHs are harder to train than Yorkies!
