Just an update on toiletting.
« on: June 17, 2010, 08:58:53 AM »
Well the good news was he did poop outside for a second time, however catching him to do it again has been difficult. He's good with wees now but still seems to find too many things distracting to poop. I remember Keli had a similar thing all his life which meant if some school kids went by or a noisey truck he would stop mid poop and take ages before he would go again. I can't keep filling him up with food to make him poop so that stopped last week and I can't spend 8 hours every day outside. He does get worried he's done it indoors and comes to paw me to tell me. So although he can do it outside, it's making him realise it!

I was wondering how you were getting on Mel.  If he is coming and pawing you when he's done it inside and seems worried about it, then hopefully it will just be a matter of time for him to 'click' and realise that outside is the correct place.  Odie gets distracted too with noises etc and that can put him off 'mid flow' so to speak!  Lesley  :D
Both taken away from us far too soon. x  RIP Angels Odie & Archie, causing mayhem at the Rainbow, no doubt!

I dunno he just doesn't seem to even attempt it outside. Many times I've taken him out for 20 minutes run around and nothing. Then immediately he's indoors he runs in the lounge and deposits.
