Thanks in Advance!

They are used for bell training. You teach your pups to ring the bells when they need to go outside to potty. No barking or scratching at the door.

oh i see. Thanks for replying!

Now another question.

So how does he/she know there suppose to ring this bell to go potty?

I dont even know when my dog has to go. I just take him outside frequently (sp) an tell him "go potty". I also have off white carpet in my whole house so alot of times i dont even see his spots but i sure do smell it once i get home from work! Its ok tho the carpet cleaner guys are coming to the house to do there majic an clean all of it!

P.S. i love my little buddy!

Crate training would eliminate those messes when you get home... assuming he's old enough to hold it. Basically before you take him out you take his paw and ring your bell, act all excited like he did it and say "OUTSIDE?! OK LETS GO OUTSIDE!" and then go out like normal. Soon he'll figure out ringing the bell is the most effective way to tell you he needs to go out!

I bought some thicker yarn, and cat play bells from walmart, tied them to the yarn and put them on the patio door. Total cost was $7, assembly was 15seconds

so far i still haven't made them for morgan. she's been doing excellent without them. no potty accidents in the house for at least 3 weeks now. she knows her schedule now and waits for me to get out of bed. then she waits till 12 when i come home for lunch (she's contained in a play pen or crate), then out again at 4:30 when i get home from work. she's being so good. thank god she caught on
