| Potty Training 2nd Pup in Home??? We are set to get our new little girl on 10/21. She is a year old, and the breeder warns she is not always reliable yet w the potty pads. That she still requires a little supervision. Being that this will be our second, I wasn't sure if FULL potty training protocol should be started (as if I am starting from beginning) or if having Gidget here will help the new one know where to go?

| I already had two other dogs when Belle came to live with us. They are outdoor trained, though, and when she came here in Feb it was too cold and snowy for her to go outside. So, she is pad trained.... and only in the past few months has she been completely reliable (she'll be 1 yr old on Nov 1) I have been trying to get her to go outside, too, and she has picked up on where to go potty outdoors by watching the other two. I would say, start her from square one, like a puppy, since your home will be a new environment for her. You want her to develop good potty habits from the very beginning. Good luck with your new little girl! You must be so excited
