Dougal has being doing really well lately, and thankfully didn't forget everything while in kennels! As soon as he saw the chicken come out it seemed to come flooding back (BTW Karlin we just missed you by about half an hour the morning we dropped them off. You had just picked your bunch up)
Anyway the only problem we've been having is that he doesn't ask to go out. He will go to the door and stand at it for a moment, look at me and if I don't see him or react immediately he will go there and then. I know some people have mentioned using a bell, so we've been thinking of getting him one. Any suggestions?
Secondly he has problems going in strange places. :roll: He will go on command at home no problem in his toilet area but seems to be very reluctant to go in foreign places. Even with command word and the smell of chicken (which we use exclusively as toilet treats).
Otherwise he's doing great and can hold it overnight no problem
