Pooping on the floor. What does it mean?

[Digi]

I tether Jasper to the bed at night. He can sleep on my bed, or his bed, but can't go far enough to poop. Is that an option?

I would like to do that, however our bed doesnt have legs. We are getting a king but not until summer or later and it will have legs for that reason.

He is tether trained as i forced him to learn it, just like i did with Digi as i feel its an important skill for a dog to know.

Hmmm i could kennel him at night and tether him to the couch during the day. That might work as there is nothing to hang himself on and its a 6' leash. The couch is leather and the leash just falls off the arm.

I suppose he could still poop on the floor, but maybe he wont. Ill try it tomorrow.
