If all my puppy did was fart, I would be so happy, but she follows through every time.I woke up to 5 lakes and 4 mounds this am.She so has not got to grips with potty trianing.I have to be so careful whe I get up.

Bless, I remember those puppy days........careful where you tread.
I have a West Highland Terrier, he is 10 now and he is thoroughly spoilt....by my parents.  They are retired and can spend quality time with him.  He loves it.

There's nothing like some squishy puppy poo between your toes first thing in the morning! Ugh!  :P  :P

 :laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:

The only thing worse than that is when I skid across the room in it.  >:(  >:(

Fiona, when I was training my dog Cody, I ended up tossing the rug outside. He kept going on a small area rug and I just tossed it outside. In doing so, it helped put the smell out there. I read someplace that dogs are attracted to the smell. They really don't remember the area visually. They use their sense of smell, and when they smell it they say "Oh! That's me! So this must be my potty spot". When, on the rare occassion he went potty someplace else in the house, I would toss the paper towels I used to clean it up out in the back yard. Eventually he formed the habit to start going out there rather than inside the house.

The cat for some reason was much harder to train. I had a hell of a time teaching him to use his cat pan.

You all are crazy!!! I should have known David was leading this  :) The dog I had when I was growing up used to do that. It was really bad when I was following her up the stairs and she did it  :o And then she would sit on the floor and scoot too like the advertisement on tv. And then the cat learned how to do it too from her. She was a good dog though  ;)

Was there ever any doubt in your mind Jack?  ;)  ;)


I call that "dog sledding". Cody did that for awhile. Now I wipe him off with some toilet paper when he comes in and he doesn't seem to sled on the carpeting anymore. God, I really hated it when he did that! >:(

I was trying to be polite by not mentioning the squishy poo between the toes, but glad you mentioned it. ;D

Since we're talking animal gas, the little kitten we adopted is on the farty side.  lmao!

He's litter box trained, and every once and a while, we smell something, and think he forgot about the box, but never find anything....he's just farty.


Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!
