| Praise the Lord!!!! Patience does work. Garrett has been only pad trained. No matter how much I leave the patio door open nor take him for walks, he comes in runs like mad to his pee pad and then goes. Never has accidents, just won't go anywhere but the pad. I have never made a big deal, feeling that as long as he does not go on my carpet, I would accept the pads. Twice he has gone pee outside and you would have thought he won a contest the way I carried on. Today!!! At last!!! at 18 months of age, Gar very nonchalantly did his business outside!!!! He pooped outside!!!!! Benni came trained, except for one setback after a hospitalization, but Gar has stubbornly kept his pee pads! Light at the end of the tunnel!!! |

| Gus was trained to go on the pads, but as he got older we started taking him outside. And now he will only go outside. I usually take him everywhere with me but when we have to leave him behind I will leave a pad out for him. I think he's used the pad 2 times in the last 6 months or so. But he will usually hold it till we get home. It takes time but they are so smart. Praise and love, and they will get it down. Congrats!
