Potty training keeps rolling along. I am happy to report that Derby had no accidents at home yesterday. Oh wait, he had one small peeing accident, but I'll chalk that one up to excitement from playing. It came with no warning! But it seems as though Derby has already figured out where he should pee while he's at home and in the "fort". He can run outside by himself if i leave the sliding glass door open for him.
At work it's another story. He peed inside 3 times yesterday, and has already pooped inside once this morning. I'm no dog whisperer, but if i had to guess, it's because he hasn't established a good potty area here. At home, when we take him out, there's only a small yard so all of his potties are generally within a small range of each other. At work there's a whole large parking lot for him, so I don't think he's found his spot yet.
Other than pottying, he's been a great dog. He no longer whines we put him in his crate at night, nor does he whine when I put him in his pen at work. He just quietly goes about his thing, napping or playing with his toys. Sigh... if only he never had to potty, he'd be the perfect dog!
