Do you think he'll catch on with the Outie stuff by watching Gia since he seems to love her? I'd forgotten about the trials of housebreaking until I fostered Woody/Fred for a few days! I think my eyes were glued to his butt, watching for any clue. I realized then and there, I ain't no spring chicken! (*wipes bow*)
I'm so amazed how you do it. Are you crating Rocky? Yikes! i just remembered Mz Logan's original name was Rocky. OMG! Is this an omen? ...No..no...The Princess would go nuts.
I'm hoping he catches on. Frankly, that's my main mode of housetraining dogs ... turn them loose and wait a few days until they catch on and follow the other dogs out the dog door. I am far from an expert on housetraining! So, I'm hoping he gets it, or I'm going to have to do a lot of quick research! LOL
No, I'm not crating him, only because he HATES the crate. He spent at least twenty hours per day in his crate for the last three months, and before that he spent two months in a cage at a pet store, and before that, he came from a puppy mill. Understandably, he is not at all pleased to go back in the crate. I'll start working on it, if I have to, but I'd rather give him some time to figure things out on his own.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
