The Good: He learned to go to the door when he wants to go outside.
The Okay: He thinks the yard is strictly for this……
@TomeReader he's not wrong. Unless it's too hot for a black doggo. Gunner will sit in it and roast too long but makes us go all the way into the yard to chase him back in
@Kurtroedeger
He won't do his business in the yard. Even first thing in the morning, he'll hold it until we walk him.That's workable for now, but not ideal for winter. 🥶
try putting a leash on him and walking him around the yard. give him permission.
@holon42
We're doing that, it just hasn't clicked for him yet.
I had a dog who was having this same issue... Finally, I peed in the yard while he was watching. That worked.
Of course, I had very high fences and no neighbors could see into that corner of the yard.
@tyghebright @holon42
We might ask our neighbor to walk her dog in our yard.
that's a good idea. then the alien urine scent should get him responding in kind😂
