Wow, I never thought I would ever have something to post about back here. Dumbledore and Draco are both pad trained, but with getting two more dogs we figured it would be best to housebreak everyone. Well we just had our first full day of no potty accidents. From early Wed. morning to early Thursday morning everybody did the business outside and we got everone outside quick enough. Actually the period is longer than 24 hours. The last accident was sometime Tuesday morning. The no accident period was broken this morning at 3am when Minny the puppy was not vocal enough to wake us up and she pee'ed all over her bedding. Minny had been very good at barking loud enough to wake us in time.
Also, mommy Bella is very smart. We have some bells hanging on the door knob of the door going to the backyard. Before we go out, we say "Let's go out" while ringing the bells, and before opening the door and letting them out. As they go out, we keep ringing the bells. Well, Bella has started ringing the bells to let us know she needs to go out.
