Today is Wednesday, which means that Pizza forgot to remind me to post for like 2 days! What a bad memory she has.
Yesterday we bought Pizza a puppy pad that is impossible for her to eat. Instead of accepting this, she seems to see it as more of a challenge. I feel like maybe she will be successful.
Today I took Pizza for a walk after work. I think we did such a good job training her to pee on her puppy pad that she doesn't realize she can pee outside where ever she wants. We walked, then on the way home she sprinted the whole way so she could get inside to pee. I wonder how we will fix this problem.
On a happy note, Pizza found two of her toys which had been missing for about 2 weeks! I don't know where they were or where she found them..what a tricky girl. I wonder what else she is hiding...
Pizza's grandma Jane bought us a book of dog training for dummies. I must say, I think it's finally time I broke down and read it. Don't worry, I'll keep all three of you followers up do date on the progress of training her.
I think Pizza needs a job.
Hello Staci's sister, here is a tip I found helpful with my puppies. Whenever she is outside and goes potty, praise her "Good Potty!!" and then give her a treat. Then you can take her outside and say "Go Potty" when you want her to potty (then give her a treat if she does it). Pretty soon she will be able to pee whenever (and where) you want her to.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
I use "Hurry up" instead of "Go Potty" because you get fewer mean looks in the middle of a crowd :-)
ReplyDeleteHello Megan,
ReplyDeleteI am a dog's grandma, I just read! Amelia invited me to follow P-M's life. Is that okay with you, Miles, and Pizza?
Love,
Jane
