I have tried to be very consistent with Bailey's daily routine. When it comes to potty training, it is absolutely essential that the dog is given the opportunity to potty at key times in his day, when he first wakes up in the morning, when he has been in the crate for a while. About 20 minutes after drinking a lot of water, after vigorous play, after eating.
This morning I took Bailey out first thing. And he pee'd and Poo'd right away. We came back in to the kitchen and I let him run around with toys and playing with Frank. He had a rousing game of tug of war with Frank. and some retrieving for good measure. I was busy on my computer. All of a sudden Frank said, 'Sallee, he went to the door!" I grabbed the leash and took him outside. Sure enough, he had another big poop! Im so proud of him! He knew he had to go. And he knew he had to go outside. What a special boy!
