Shelley Washington, Illinois 4/25/2013 2:28:14 PM Hi. I tried the newspaper lining as was suggested!! My two 2 month old collies had great fun ripping the paper apart!! Is there anything else I can use? I've tried pee pads but still rip those apart! I live in a home built in 1905 so there is not a laundry room except in the 1905 built basement (horror). As far as bathrooms go, there are two and believe me they're put to good use in the morning! Please help! The puppies are taken out at least every two hours during the day, but still mess in the "butler" pantry which is off the kitchen. They howl if I put them in the crate during the day but do fine at night. I have to have the crate close by to hear them bark (take them out) otherwise they pee in the crate. Believe me when I say-I need at least one night of uninterrupted sleep! It's only been a week since we brought the boys home!

Yolanda Bakersfield, CA 7/9/2009 9:35:32 PM our 9 mo yorkie mix is doing fine with poop training outside. just recently, our older children just started letting him free in the backyard to do his business. problem, i started finding his poop right outside the back door instead of his designated poop area. im thinking its because kids are not staying with him outside. can you give us some insight on this recent problem??? thanks for your help
