She has had a couple of accidents in the house today but in the main has gone to the toilet outside. We are taking her every hour and once she sees Milo do it, she copies.

She does however get very excited if we let her into the lounge when after a minute of running around she wees on the carpet but then goes to her bed as she knows its wrong although we don't punish her.

Fingers crossed it won't take too long although it is very stressful lol.

Thanks for asking x

They are very hard work initially, but you soon forget it once they have learned to go outside....First 2 months with Moli, I was shatterd, she was my first pup for 15 years, and boy did I know it!!

It is hard work mainly just trying to establish a routine for all animals and humans alike. Bess was very hard for Hubby last night while I work a night shift.she was up 6 times and she messed everywhere and barked too. We haven't sussed out what bark is for what yet but it will come. She doesn't bark in the day. We separate both dogs in the day and let them into the lounge for the evening. Easy does it especially as Bess tries to nip him into a game!!!

Its like having a baby all over again. Thank goodness I'm off to work for some peace
