    Tango was 100% reliable by 4 months old, but I could trust her way before then. She only ever had one accident, the night we got her and that was completely my fault. I'd say she was probably fully housebroken within 2 days, but I just don't trust pups fully before the age of 4 months...if that maks any sense.

    Tia still isn't 100% reliable - Dachshunds have got to be one of the worst breeds when it comes to housebreaking. I'd say she's about 98.9% reliable now, but she's almost 7 and it took her this long to get to this point and we trained her the exact same way as we have any other dog.

    Winston came housebroken as a 7 year old adult.

    Morgan was 100% reliable by 7 1/2 months, but we didn't get her until she was 4 months old and her foster home hadn't worked very hard on housebreaking..
